DESCRIPTION:BioWeek is now BioMonth! In March you can spend your Tuesday a
 nd Wednesday mornings learning how to use supercomputer Puhti to do your d
 ata processing or simulations effectively\, and how to handle your data no
 t only while doing the analysis\, but also before and after that! Join the
  BioMonth 2021 classes and make sure you get the most out of our services*
  and your data management in shape!* The CSC services discussed in this co
 urse are free-of-charge for academic research\, education and training pur
 poses in Finnish higher education institutions and in state research insti
 tutes (subsidized by the Ministry of Education and Culture\, Finland).  W
 ith 1 registration you get 6 half-days (9:00-12:00) of interesting topics 
 in March 2021.16.3. and 17.3.23.3. and 24.3.30.3. and 31.3.Description:Puh
 ti is a CSC's supercomputer that comprises powerful CPU partitions with a 
 wide range of memory sizes and local storage options. Puhti allows the use
 r to reserve compute and memory resources flexibly\, and the user can run 
 anything from interactive single core data processing to medium scale simu
 lations spanning multiple nodes. Puhti has a wide selection of scientific 
 software installed.Allas is CSC's general-purpose research data storage se
 rver. It is a part of the CSC storage portfolio and can be accessed on the
  CSC servers as well as from anywhere on the internet. Allas can be used b
 oth for static research data that needs to be available for analysis and t
 o collect and host cumulating or changing data.Good research data manageme
 nt is the basis of successful research. Research data management (RDM) con
 cerns the managing and organisation of data during as well as after the ac
 tive phase of a project. It is important to consider all stages of data ma
 nagement from collecting and processing the data to publishing and sharing
  it using a Data Management Plan (DMP). This will increase the impact and 
 visibility of your work and enable reuse of the data in the future.Later t
 his course we will introduce HPC-compliant containers called Singularity c
 ontainers which allows Puhti users to run their applications in a containe
 rised environment. These containers can serve as an alternative approach t
 o conda packages.Puhti (16.-17.3. 9:00-12:00 EET (UTC+2))Getting started w

 d line environment in Linux and able to use an editor (e.g.\, vi\, nano\, 
 emacs\, etc.) in order to get the maximum benefit from this course.So\, id
 eal candidates for this course are:Bioinformaticians or computer scientist
 s with some bio-backgroundBiologists with Linux skillsThe course will incl
 ude hands-on using the Linux command line. You'll need to be able for exam
 ple to move around in the directory hierarchy (cd\, ls\, pwd)\, create dir
 ectories\, copy\, rename\, delete files (mkdir\, cp\, mv\, rm)\, uncompres
 s files (tar\, unzip)\, edit files (any text editor\, e.g. gedit\, nano\, 
 emacs)\, look at file contents (more\, less)\, use some environment variab
 les ($HOME\, ...).Here are some links for easy self-study:Linux command li
 ne and tutorials that you can do in your browser CSCs Linux1 course mater
 ials (check the materials links)UNIX tutorial for beginners (the first two
  topics are a good start\, try also some editor)Basic Linux Commands 10 mi
 n tutorial video (sit back and watch)CSC Linux Cheat Sheet (one page summ
 ary of most important Linux commands and then some -handy to have near you
  during the course)Linux basics tutorial for CSC (Thorough guide includin
 g also topics covered in the course)New to CSC? Worry not! We will organis
 e a "Getting started" session online on Monday 15th of March at 13:00 EET 
 (UTC+2) before the course\, where you can get help for getting the CSC cre
 dentials!
