Join a focused, hands-on introduction to high performance computing (HPC) designed for researchers, students and professionals looking to accelerate their computational workflows from 1 to 2 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 23 online. Make sure to register ahead of time.
The featured speaker for the event is Dave Turner, application scientist at Kansas State University. Dave brings years of experience supporting research computing across disciplines and will lead the discussion, offering practical insights and answering your questions.
An application scientist is a technical expert who helps researchers make the most of HPC systems. They specialize in:
- Supporting scientific computing workflows
- Optimizing applications for performance and scalability
- Troubleshooting and training users
- Bridging the gap between research goals and computational resources
There will also be a bonus support session where Dave will be available after the event to assist HPC users with questions, troubleshooting and guidance on using BeoShock and other HPC resources. Bring your questions and get personalized help.
What you’ll learn:
- Basics of HPC systems and architecture
- How to access and run jobs on BeoShock HPC
- Tips for optimizing performance and managing resources
- Q&A with HPC experts
Whether you’re new to HPC or looking to sharpen your skills, this session will help you get started and make the most of available resources. Open to all disciplines – no prior HPC experience required.
