About this training

Welcome to HPC Workshop 1 - A short introduction to HSUper and the Linux Terminal - the first step in your journey to mastering High Performance Computing (HPC) with HSUper! This training is part of a series of self-paced digital courses designed to help you build the skills needed to effectively utilize HPC resources on HSUper at the HSU.

This course is part of the reimagined HSUper Workshops series, originally offered as a six-part on-site program. Now presented as flexible, self-paced digital trainings, these workshops are designed to empower HSUper users to independently develop the competencies needed to make the most of HPC resources.

Learning Goals

• Acess: You will learn what prerequisities you need to use the HPC structure at the HSU in general and how to access the HSUper. Therefore you will learn how to navigate via Command Line Interface (CLI)

• Create & Delete: After getting access to HSUper, you will learn how to work with text files. You will learn how to display, create and delete files. In this course you will find a task to apply your new knowledge and simulate your problem solving skills.

• Directories & Scripts: To organize directories, you will learn how to create, delete and change directories. The last task is about scripts and environments variables.

Level of Difficulty

This workshop is tailored for new HSUper users at the Beginner-Level who are ready to take their first steps in the world of HPC. Whether you’re exploring computational science, running data-intensive simulations, or optimizing large-scale workflows, this course provides the foundational knowledge you need to get started.
