Lecture: Increasing Your Computing Power with XSEDE — Friday, May 10

Does your research or teaching involve computing at a level that’s outgrown your personal computer’s capabilities? Do your computing tasks involve people at multiple institutions?   Do you have Big Data analysis needs that are currently unmet? If you said yes to any of these, or if you are keen to learn where to get lots of free computing cycles, then this session on national supercomputing resources is for you. The Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE) is a heavy-duty cyberinfrastructure collection billed as “a single virtual system that scientists can use to interactively share computing resources, data and expertise.” In this session, the presenter will review the current set of hardware, software, and services available at XSEDE sites, demonstrate the application process, and provide some examples of XSEDE use by Michigan researchers.

Location: Gallery Lab, 100 Hatcher Graduate Library, 913 South University, Central Campus Session level: All Sponsor(s): Advanced Research Computing at U-M (ARC) Presenter: Prof. August Evrard, Physics Department, Advanced Research Computing at U-M (ARC) For more information and to register, please visit https://ttc.iss.lsa.umich.edu/ttc/sessions/increasing-your-computing-power-with-xsede/
