Hi everyone, Applications for the OSG User School 2022 (weeklong summer school on high throughput computing for research, see details below) are due on Monday, April 18. Please consider if you have a research problem that could be accelerated by using lots of individual computers. :)
Cheers, Christina IMPORTANT DATES * Application Period (OPEN NOW): 18 March - 18 April 2022 * OSG User School: 25-29 July 2022 MORE INFORMATION AND APPLICATIONS * Web: https://www.opensciencegrid.org/user-school-2022/ * Email: [email protected] From: Christina Koch <[email protected]> Date: Thursday, March 24, 2022 at 2:52 PM To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Cc: OSG User School <[email protected]> Subject: OSG User School 2022: Learn to harness large-scale computing for research Hi Carpentries community, See information below for a summer school opportunity, especially relevant to anyone who has a research problem that could be accelerated by running a lot of calculations on a lot of computers!! Best, Christina Koch *** ANNOUNCING THE OSG USER SCHOOL 2022! If you could access hundreds or even thousands of computers for your scholarly work or the work you support, what could you do? How could it transform your research? What discoveries might be made? We are seeking applicants for the OSG User School 2022, from July 25-29, at the beautiful University of Wisconsin in Madison. Participants will learn to use high throughput computing (HTC) to harness vast amounts of computing power for research, applicable to nearly any field of study. In previous Schools, we have helped people in physics, chemistry, engineering, life sciences, earth sciences, agricultural and animal sciences, economics, social sciences, medicine, and more. https://opensciencegrid.org/user-school-2022/ Using lectures, demonstrations, hands-on exercises, roleplays, and personal consulting with OSG experts in HTC, participants will learn how HTC systems work, how to run and manage many jobs and huge datasets, how to implement a realistic scientific computing workflow, and most importantly, how to get your own research work up and running. Want to learn more about HTC? See, e.g., https://chtc.cs.wisc.edu/htc.html Worried about costs? We pay all basic travel, hotel, and food costs for applicants who are selected to attend. This is a valuable offer! Ideal candidates are graduate students doing research and staff (e.g., facilitators, admins) supporting research that involves or could involve large-scale computing - work that cannot be done on one laptop or a handful of computers. We also accept post-doctoral students, faculty, research staff, and advanced undergraduates, so tell us about yourself regardless of your current role! We are planning a completely in-person event and will follow all COVID guidelines that are in effect at that time.
