The Research Computing Center (RCC) is a centralized service that provides high-end computing and visualization resources to researchers at the University. This presentation will discuss RCC services and provide information on how to get computing and storage resources on RCC’s computing infrastructure. A hands-on component will begin by creating accounts on Midway, the RCC’s high-performance computer, through which attendees will be able to compile code, submit jobs using the SLURM batch scheduler, explore the software module system, and learn about rcchelp, a custom online documentation system.

Prerequisites: Attendees are encouraged to bring a laptop to participate in the hands-on session.
