Join us for a comprehensive three-part workshop series designed to introduce researchers and practitioners with disabilities to the NCSA Delta high-performance computing cluster. This hands-on series prioritizes command-line proficiency, clear verbal instruction, and practical problem-solving approaches that work for all users.
- Gain confidence connecting to and navigating the Delta supercomputing cluster through hands-on practice with essential command-line tools.
- Learn to create computational scripts and submit your first jobs to the Delta cluster using the Slurm job scheduler.
- Explore Delta's software ecosystem and learn the essentials of version control for reproducible research.
Who Should Attend: New HPC users, researchers with disabilities, and anyone seeking inclusive computing skills.
Series Philosophy:
- Learner-centered and problem-focused approach
- Command-line first, with GUI as a complement
- All instruction assumes a non-visual context
- Community building and peer support
Optional: Participants have the opportunity to contribute to accessibility research by completing optional surveys before and after the workshop series.
