From the SIB :
Dear All,
We are pleased to announce the 3rd session of the SIB Bioinformatics Workshop entitled:
“High Performance Computing (HPC) in Life Sciences”
This workshop is particularly targeted to Vital-IT users that have recently received accounts on the Vital-IT infrastructure.
This workshop, to be held on Friday, 5 Nov. 2010, will cover the following main subjects:
• Identify limits of conventional multi-core machines (PCs) when using life science applications
• Obtain basic theoretical knowledge on high performance computing
• Learn how to use Vital-IT’s computing cluster for scientific applications (including hands-on exercises on Vital-IT’s infrastructure)
• Tips and tricks for effective and efficient cluster usage
• Discuss particular computing needs and requirements of course participants
Hope to see you there!
For the organizers,
Vassilios Ioannidis
