## email to triton users for winter kickstart 2022
Dear triton users,
Year 2021 is soon over. We would like to thank you for joining many of our courses, events, and daily garages. Until January 10 2022 triton support is more limited, we cannot promise that we will be at the daily zoom session, so the best way to contact us is to open an issue in the tracker: https://version.aalto.fi/gitlab/AaltoScienceIT/triton/issues
January is time for our **Winter kickstart** to get to know better our Triton cluster. This is highly recommended if you have started using Triton/HPC only in the past few months.
Please mark your calendar and recommend this course to colleagues who are still new to Triton HPC or are planning to get a Triton account. (Despite the name, this course is somewhat generic and is suitable for people outside Aalto as well: feel free to forward to others as well).
Furthermore, this time we again offer a quick introduction to scientific computing on the friday before the course. This is a very broad introduction to the tools available (at Aalto and other places) and when to use them, not just for people who need large computing clusters. Every new computational scientist should attend this once.
*Part 1: 14/01/2022 12:00–15:00* **Getting started with scientific computing.** https://scicomp.aalto.fi/training/scip/intro-linux-aalto-computing
*Part 2: 17–18/01/2022 12:00–15:00* **Introduction to High Performance Computing (HPC) with the Triton computing cluster.**
https://scicomp.aalto.fi/training/scip/winter-kickstart/
**REGISTRATION LINK: https://link.webropol.com/s/introHPCJan2022**
At Aalto Scientific Computing we are also planning more hands-on courses for the year 2022 and also promoting other courses at Aalto, in Finland, and in the Nordics. Follow updates at http://scicomp.aalto.fi/ or on Twitter at https://twitter.com/SciCompAalto. See also our self-learning materials at https://handsonscicomp.readthedocs.io/
Finally, as we always thrive to improve our resources and what we can offer for you, please take our Scientific Computing survey at https://forms.gle/cdkjd9vZk73E7Jri8
We wish you peaceful holidays

### UPDATED email for non triton users kickstart 2022
hello!
Are you interested in learning how to improve your computing skills and the performance of your data analysis code/tools using High Performance Computing? Please join us for our **"Introduction to Scientific Computing and HPC 2-4 February 2022"**.
For those who are not familiar with the basics of scientific computing, we offer a quick introduction to the topic on 2/Feb/2022. This is a very broad introduction to the tools available (at Aalto and other places) and when to use them, not just for people who need large computing clusters. Every new computational scientist should attend this once.
For those already familiar with data science, but who feel that they are limited by the hardware/software resources of their laptop/workstation, Part 2 will give you an introduction to High Performance Computing (HPC). While the teaching materials are based on Aalto Triton cluster, the course is suitable for everyone with access to a HPC cluster using slurm. We especially welcome users from CSC, University of Helsinki, TUNI, University of Oulu: some representative of each organisation will be happy to help you during the course, especially when the examples have some organisation-specific differences.

OLD STUFF FROM 2021 below
# Winter 2021 Kickstart internal
# FOLLOW UP EMAIL
Hello and thank you for taking part to our "Linux/High performance computing kickstart" online course last week.
All video recordings from the streaming are available at our YouTube channel:
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZLVmS9rf3nN_tMPgqoUQac9bTjZw8JYc
Other interesting courses are coming, ***LINK***
Finally, in order to keep giving courses, it is very important to have feedback on the course. This is especially so if you plan on watching or using the material later after the course.
We would kindly ask you to fill in this quick survey so that we keep on improving our courses:
https://forms.gle/5kqjk1bxkQRszVJb6
Have a great day!
Aalto Scientific Computing
## Debriefing
- technical set up
- much better than having the lecturer in the main room
- having breakout room would have been nicer (but you need to have more motivated people and maybe more helpers)
- it is good to be live and so we can get access to the users.
- whole idea: overview (friday)
- it was good also for Oslo people to get a summary of all options available (not just HPC)
- no idea if people were doing/testing linux commands
- content
- does it make sense to swap bits of 1st & 2nd day? Define the problem first (I want to run things in parallel), add blocks on top later.
- What went wrong?
- Many people not doing exercises and no way to know who is doing what
- "installation" session: very few came and tested that they could connect to cluster. Here it would be also go to prepare the folders together (e.g. running git clone together). It would be good to introduce srun here (e.g. srun --pty bash AND srun hostname) as a preview (but also for testing that the accounts work)
- What can we improve?
- idea: We could get feedback that they are doing the exercises, e.g. they could write on hackMD some number from their exercise (e.g. write the gpu node you went to, write how long the process took). Polls are also an option.
- This is valid also for the Linux part, if we tell student to run command X and then getting the answers to a shared doc (e.g. hackmd)
- examples: write the hostname you got. Write your value of PI that you got. Write the name of gpu node you ended up on. Write the walltime of your job. Use seff to write the efficiency of your work.
- a slurm job that people submit to be done as a test could be tested on laptop and on remote system and then one can compare (especially when you can add cpus)
- it could be made clear that if you join the zoom you are expected to do exercises (active track) versus "watch only" (passive track). Would course credit motivate people?
- 3 styles of attendees (?)
- passive (just attend and learn)
- active (attend and do exercises)
- too advanced (listening but they know a lot already)
- solutions to exercises to the webpages (w hide/show button)
- installation session could have
- test the access to triton, what's in the MOTD?
- srun hostname
- explain work folder
- prepare folder for examples (git clone ...)
- python pi.py 1000
- AND people write the answer
- multiple choice answers to get feedback from user
where do we want to be?
- goal: fix recurrent issues
-
## Day 3 plan
- 12:00 - 12:50 (50 min) serial (25 min lecture, 25 min hands-on)
- 12:50 - 13:00 (10 min) break
- 13:00 - 13:30 (30 min) array
- 13:30 - 13:50 (20+20? min) gpu
- 13:50 - 14:00 (10 min) break, in middle of GPU
- 14:00 - 14:20 gpu?
- (40 min) parallel # maybe this can be shortened?
-
- (5 min) Python example (5 minute demo - RD)
- (5 min) R example (5 min demo)
- (5 min) Matlab example (5 min demo)

Hello
This is a reminder that in a few hours we are starting the online course "High performance computing kickstart". The event is live streamed via Twitch at https://aaltoscicomp.github.io/scip/ Please join already by 11:50 since we give important introductory information on how to take part in the course and have the best experience.
We continue the strategy from Friday: Twitch stream (because education should be free), and Zoom for private hands-on sessions. Unlike Friday, this week the hands-on sessions are very important to attend to get the most out of the course. We recommend you open the Twitch stream on the left side of your screen, and your own working windows/HackMD for questions/etc on the right side. Feel free to distribute the Twitch stream to anyone who may be interested.
For exercises and interactive questions please join this zoom https://aalto.zoom.us/j/67760752677 (not streamed).
We use HackMD for anonymous written questions and answers: https://hackmd.io/@AaltoSciComp/IntroWinter2021 (will be published afterwards). We recommend you open this in a web browser on your right side.
All you need is a terminal window to connect to the cluster. Aalto users: please check that you can connect to the triton cluster https://scicomp.aalto.fi/triton/tut/connecting/
Helsinki University users: please check the connection to your cluster following instructions at https://wiki.helsinki.fi/display/it4sci/HPC++Winter+KICKSTART+2021

# OLD STUFF HERE BELOW
## Resources for scientific computing at Aalto and the Triton High Perofmance Computing cluster (online workshop, 29/Jan-2/Feb/2021).
In this three days workshop organised by [Aalto Scientific Computing](https://scicomp.aalto.fi/) we cover the multiple options on [how to perform data analysis at Aalto University](https://scicomp.aalto.fi/triton/usage/workflows/) and how to get started with the Triton High Performance Computing (HPC) cluster. The workshop also includes a short Linux Shell Crash Course about learning the essentials of the Linux Shell, the command line user interface of the Linux Operating System. You will get to familiarize yourself with the basic shell commands and workflows (connecting to remote high-computing environments, moving in between directories, listing their contents and editing files). This lays the foundation for using HPC environments that can be intimidating to take into use, but enable more interesting data analyses than what can be obtained with personal computers. Learning will take place in a friendly, inclusive and hands-on environment. For more information, please visit https://scicomp.aalto.fi/training/ and [register at this link](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScuBRlKQ4X-ZVSUhoz8zLYSgAI5xH91Cg9hfkEHrjmerViy0Q/viewform)
