Learn how to use the new Compute Canada computing cluster “Cedar” to further your own research! This workshop will help you understand the basic architecture of Cedar’s file systems and software environments. We will cover job submissions via SLURM scheduler, best practices for loading modules and creating user-specific environments, introduce tools to help you estimate the resources required for each job (ex. CPU  and memory), predict queue job wait times, and provide options to get additional assistance. Prerequisites
