SUMMARY:COMPLECS: Interactive Computing
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. Inst
 ructorMary 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 2 teams at the annual student cluster competitions at the SC Conference 
 (The International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, 
 Storage, and Analysis).See a full list of SDSC's upcoming training and eve
 nts here.COMPLECS (COMPrehensive Learning for end-users to Effectively uti
 lize CyberinfraStructure) is a new SDSC program where training will cover 
 non-programming skills needed to effectively use supercomputers. Topics in
 clude parallel computing concepts, Linux tools and bash scripting, securit
 y, batch computing, how to get help, data management and interactive compu
 ting. Each session offers 1 hour of instruction followed by a 30-minute Q&
 A. COMPLECS is supported by NSF award 2320934.
