		<description><![CDATA[<p>Computational research can analyze models and/or data to reach new conclusions in faster ways or in more complex scenarios. UCF has a more than 7,000-core cluster for general-purpose research computation across many academic fields, and a 54-node GPU cluster for specialized computation.<br><br>This workshop will review the capabilities of the UCF Advanced Research Computing Center, with a focus on the two clusters (known as Stokes and Newton). Storage system usage, job scheduling, account balancing, an example Slurm script and job submission will be covered with a demonstration. Participants will see examples of jobs that use only CPU or GPU on the clusters. A new web portal to access the clusters will also be shown. A brief introduction to the national (ACCESS) and state HPC clusters (HiPerGator), which are outside of UCF's campus, will also be shared.<br><br>Learning outcomes:<br>- Introduction to Stokes and Newton<br>- Process of requesting an account<br>- Information on quota<br>- Demo of login and job submission<br>- Learn Slurm script<br>- Demo of new web portal<br><br><br><strong>Please note:</strong><span> This event will not be recorded. Presentation materials, if provided by the instructor, will be emailed to all registered participants by the end of the second business day following the event. If you did not register but would like access to the materials, email </span><a target="_blank">ResearchITEvents@ucf.edu</a><span> two business days after the workshop concludes.</span></p>
