Workshop: Python for HPC, Wednesday March 11th 1-3PM

Location: Kathleen A. Zar Room, John Crerar Library

Presented by the Research Computing Center

 The Python programming language and its software ecosystem have become ubiquitous in scientific and research computing. This workshop will discuss issues and techniques relevant for using Python in a HPC environment and RCC’s Midway cluster in particular. Participants are expected to have a general familiarity with Python but no special expertise is required.

Topics covered:
* Python and libraries installed on Midway
* How to install your own libraries and manage your environment
* Checkpointing and restarting
* Parallel programming using multiprocessing, mpi4py, and Cython
