SUMMARY:Expanse: Interactive Computing on High Performance Computing Resour
 ces
DESCRIPTION:Interactive computing refers to working with software that acce
 pts input from the user as it runs. This applies not only to business and 
 office applications, such as word processing and spreadsheet software, but
  HPC use cases involving code development, real-time data exploration and 
 advanced visualizations run across one or more compute nodes. Interactive 
 computing is often used when applications require large memory, have large
  data sets that are not that practical to download to local devices, need 
 access to higher core counts, or rely on software that is difficult to ins
 tall. User inputs are entered via a command line interface (CLI) or applic
 ation GUI (e.g., Jupyter Notebooks, Matlab, RStudio). Actions are initiate
 d on remote compute nodes as a result of user inputs. This session will in
 troduce participants to advanced CI concepts and what's going on "under th
 e hood" when they are using interactive tools. Topics covered will include
  mechanisms for accessing interactive resources, commonalities and differe
 nces between batch and interactive computing, understanding the difference
 s between web-based services and X11/GUI applications, monitoring jobs run
 ning on interactive nodes, and an overview of Open OnDemand portals. ---

 DSC  Mary Thomas works in the Data-Enabled Scientific Computing Division,
  where she is leading education, outreach & training on HPC systems. In th
 e past, Mary has led several portal and Web services projects for high-per
 formance computing infrastructure. Mary holds a Ph.D. in computational sci
 ence, and her primary research has been focused on HPC computing, coastal 
 ocean modeling, cyberinfrastructure, web technologies, and Amazon Web Serv
 ices. Mary is also a research faculty member in the Computational Sciences
  Research Center at San Diego State University. For fun, Mary has sponsore
 d several teams at the annual student cluster competitions at the SC Confe
 rence (The International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networ
 king, Storage, and Analysis).
