SUMMARY:Interactive Computing (COMPLECS)
DESCRIPTION:SummaryInteractive computing refers to working with software th
 at accepts input from the user while it is running. This applies to busine
 ss and office applications, such as word processing and spreadsheet softwa
 re, and HPC use cases involving code development, real-time data explorati
 on, and advanced visualizations run across one or more compute nodes. Inte
 ractive computing is often used when applications require large memory, ha
 ve large data sets that are impractical to download to local devices, need
  access to higher core counts, or rely on software that is difficult to in
 stall and configure. User inputs are entered via a command-line interface 
 (CLI) or a graphical user interface (GUI), such as Jupyter Notebooks, MATL
 AB, or RStudio. Actions are initiated on remote compute nodes as a result 
 of user inputs. This session will introduce participants to advanced CI co
 ncepts and what's happening "under the hood" when they use interactive too
 ls. Topics covered will include mechanisms for accessing interactive resou
 rces, commonalities and differences between batch and interactive computin
 g, understanding the differences between web-based services and X11/GUI ap
 plications, monitoring jobs running on interactive nodes, and an overview 
 of Open OnDemand portals.InstructorMary Thomas is a member of the Data Ena
 bled Scientific Computing (DESC) division. Mary holds a Ph.D. in computati
 onal science, and M.S. degrees in computer science and physics. Her resear
 ch interests include: HPC computing and training; coastal ocean modeling; 
 cyberinfrastructure and emerging technologies, including Jupyter notebooks
 , interactive and cloud computing.See a full list of SDSC's upcoming train
 ing and events here.--- COMPLECS (COMPrehensive Learning for end-users to
  Effectively utilize CyberinfraStructure) is a new SDSC program where trai
 ning will cover non-programming skills needed to effectively use supercomp
 uters. Topics include parallel computing concepts, Linux tools and bash sc
 ripting, security, batch computing, how to get help, data management and i
 nteractive computing. Each session offers 1 hour of instruction followed b
 y a 30-minute Q&A. COMPLECS is supported by NSF award 2320934.
