OpenMP Tutorial
0
OpenMP (Open Multi-Processing) is an API that supports multi-platform shared-memory multiprocessing programming in C, C++, and Fortran on many platforms, instruction-set architectures and operating systems, including Solaris, AIX, FreeBSD, HP-UX, Linux, macOS, and Windows. It consists of a set of compiler directives, library routines, and environment variables that influence run-time behavior.

Linux Tutorial from Ryan's Tutorials
0
The following pages are intended to give you a solid foundation in how to use the terminal, to get the computer to do useful work for you. You won't be a Unix guru at the end but you will be well on your way and armed with the right knowledge and skills to get you there if that's what you want (which you should because that will make you even more awesome). Here you will learn the Linux command line (Bash) with our 13 part beginners tutorial. It contains clear descriptions, command outlines, examples, shortcuts and best practice. At first, the Linux command line may seem daunting, complex and scary. It is actually quite simple and intuitive (once you understand what is going on that is), and once you work through the following sections you will understand what is going on. Unix likes to take the approach of giving you a set of building blocks and then letting you put them together. This allows us to build things to suit our needs. With a bit of creativity and logical thinking, mixed in with an appreciation of how the blocks work, we can assemble tools to do virtually anything we want. The aim is to be lazy. Why should we do anything we can get the computer to do for us? The only reason I can think of is that you don't know how (but after working through these pages you will know how, so then there won't be a good reason). A question that may have crossed your mind is "Why should I bother learning the command line? The Graphical User Interface is much easier and I can already do most of what I need there." To a certain extent you would be right, and by no means am I suggesting you should ditch the GUI. Some tasks are best suited to a GUI, word processing and video editing are great examples. At the same time, some tasks are more suited to the command line, data manipulation (reporting) and file management are some good examples. Some tasks will be just as easy in either environment. Think of the command line as another tool you can add to your belt. As always, pick the best tool for the job.

The Julia Programming Language is one of the fastest growing software languages for AI/ML development. It writes in manner that's similar to Python while being nearly as fast as C++, while being open source, and reproducible across platforms and environments. The following link provide an introduction to using Julia including the basic syntax, data structures, key functions, and a few key packages.
ConnectCI
0
Connect.Cybinfrastructure is a family of portals, each representing a program that is serving a segment of the research computing and data community. Each portal provides program-specific information, as well a custom "view" into a common database. The portal was originally developed to support project workflows and a knowledge base of self service learning resources for the Northeast Cyberteam. Subsequently, it was expanded to provide support to multiple cyberteams and other research computing communities of practice. We welcome additional communities, please contact us if you are interested in participating. Central to the Portal is an extensive and ever-evolving tagging infrastructure which informs every aspect of the Portal. The tag taxonomy was initially developed by the Northeast Cyberteam to categorize subject matter relevant to practitioners of Research Computing Facilitation and is ever changing due to the frequent introduction of new technology in domains that characterize the field of research computing.

Introduction to MP
0
Open Multi-Processing, is an API designed to simplify the integration of parallelism in software development, particularly for applications running on multi-core processors and shared-memory systems. It is an important resource as it goes over what openMP and ways to work with it. It is especially important because it provides a straightforward way to express parallelism in code through pragma directives, making it easier to create parallel regions, parallelize loops, and define critical sections. The key benefit of OpenMP lies in its ease of use, automatic thread management, and portability across various compilers and platforms. For app development, especially in the context of mobile or desktop applications, OpenMP can enhance performance by leveraging the capabilities of modern multi-core processors. By parallelizing computationally intensive tasks, such as image processing, data analysis, or simulations, apps can run faster and more efficiently, providing a smoother user experience and taking full advantage of the available hardware resources. OpenMP's scalability allows apps to adapt to different hardware configurations, making it a valuable tool for developers aiming to optimize their software for a range of devices and platforms.

Probabilistic Semantic Data Association for Collaborative Human-Robot Sensing
0
Humans cannot always be treated as oracles for collaborative sensing. Robots thus need to maintain beliefs over unknown world states when receiving semantic data from humans, as well as account for possible discrepancies between human-provided data and these beliefs. To this end, this paper introduces the problem of semantic data association (SDA) in relation to conventional data association problems for sensor fusion. It then, develops a novel probabilistic semantic data association (PSDA) algorithm to rigorously address SDA in general settings. Simulations of a multi-object search task show that PSDA enables robust collaborative state estimation under a wide range of conditions.

What are LSTMs?
0
This reading will explain what a long short-term memory neural network is. LSTMs are a type of neural networks that rely on both past and present data to make decisions about future data. It relies on loops back to previous data to make such decisions. This makes LSTMs very good for predicting time-dependent behavior.
Metadata Systems
0
Metadata is a vital topic in libraries and librarianship, encompassing structured information used for accessing digital resources. The definition of metadata varies but is essentially data about data. It has evolved beyond simply describing metadata schemas and now focuses on topics like interoperability, non-descriptive metadata (administrative and preservation metadata), and the effective application of metadata schemas for user discovery. Interoperability, the ability to seamlessly exchange metadata between systems, is a major concern. Different levels of interoperability are examined, including schema-level, record-level, and repository-level. Challenges to interoperability include variations in standards, collaboration barriers, and costs.Metadata management is discussed in terms of the holistic management of metadata across an entire library. Steps include analyzing metadata requirements, adopting schema, creating metadata content, delivery/access, evaluation, and maintenance. Administrative metadata, which encompasses ownership and production information, is becoming more critical, particularly for electronic resource licensing. Preservation metadata is also gaining importance in ensuring the long-term viability of digital objects.

Research Software Engineering Training Materials

An ongoing collection of RSE training material, workshops, and resources. We are compiling this list as a starting point for future activities. We are especially seeking material that goes beyond basic research computing competency (e.g. what The Carpentries does so well) and is general enough to span multiple domains. Specific tools and technologies used only in one domain, or applicable to only one subset of computing (i.e. HPC) are typically too narrowly focused. When in doubt, submit it to be included or reach out and we’d be happy to discuss.
