	"description": "\u003Cp\u003EComputational 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\u002Dcore cluster for general\u002Dpurpose research computation across many academic fields, and a 54\u002Dnode GPU cluster for specialized computation.\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EThis 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\u0027s campus, will also be shared.\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ELearning outcomes:\u003Cbr\u003E\u002D Introduction to Stokes and Newton\u003Cbr\u003E\u002D Process of requesting an account\u003Cbr\u003E\u002D Information on quota\u003Cbr\u003E\u002D Demo of login and job submission\u003Cbr\u003E\u002D Learn Slurm script\u003Cbr\u003E\u002D Demo of new web portal\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EPlease note:\u003C/strong\u003E\u003Cspan\u003E This event will not be recorded.
