Writing a Successful XSEDE Proposal
Class Description
XSEDE is the National Science Foundation (NSF) funded set of supercomputing resources. Requesting time on XSEDE requires a proposal. Sohrab Ismail-Beigi, Professor of Applied Physics, Physics, and Mechanical Engineering & Materials Science at Yale University, leads a workshop on writing a successful proposal for supercomputing time on XSEDE resources.
UPDATE: Power Disruption at West Campus and Impact on Clusters
As described, a brief power disruption brought down several nodes on Omega and a handful of nodes on Grace at approximately 12:30 pm on July 26th. All nodes on all clusters have been brought back into service and all clusters are stable.
We are encouraging all users of all clusters to check jobs running at any point today (7/26/2016).
Power Disruption at West Campus and Impact on Clusters
A brief power disruption at Yale’s West campus at approximately 12:30 pm, today July 26, 2016 led to many nodes on Omega going offline. Its likely that jobs running on Omega at this time were impacted. We are encouraging users to check their jobs.
There seems to be a smaller impact to other clusters so we are encouraging users of all clusters to check their jobs as well.
Big Data Analysis with Hadoop Workshop
This is a recorded online workshop with LinkedIn Hadoop developer Jack Dintruff, teaching how to use Hadoop utilities to set up, manage, and analyze large and distributed datasets. We will learn how to work with:
- HDFS
- YARN
- MapReduce
- Hive
- Pig
Topics include:
