Abstract

This Matlab on HPC training is a course on software development with the Matlab programming language. The focus of the training are the essential parallel programming principles, concepts, idioms, and best practices, which enable programmers to create professional, high-quality code. The course will give insight into the different aspects of parallelization, vectorization and optimization with Matlab and will teach guidelines to develop mature, robust, maintainable, and efficient code. In addition, the course will give an introduction to the use of Matlab on bwUniCluster 2.0, including the batch system, workspace, module files, visualization and interactive jobs.

Learning Sequence

  • Parallel Computing with Matlab
  • Using Matlab on bwUniCluster 2.0

After this course, participants will…

  • understand the basic concept of parallel computing
  • know about the limitations of parallel computing
  • have gained knowledge about the types of parallel programming
  • be able to properly write parallel code
  • know about the parallelization, vectorization and optimization
  • have a detailed understanding about the most important commands on the bwUniCluster 2.0

Prerequisites:

  • A general knowledge of programming as well as a background in Matlab programming is useful for understanding this course.
  • A basic understanding of Linux is required.
  • Matlab should already be installed on the participants computer.

FIDO2 and TOTP Token as a Second Factor for bwHPC and NEMO2

The use of a second factor to secure logins to services is becoming increasingly mandatory. bwHPC currently uses time-based one-time passwords (TOTP) or Yubico OTP as a second factor for SSH logins. We have looked at some hardware security tokens for bwIDM/bwHPC that can be used instead of a mobile phone.

News on NEMO2 Procurement

The initial partition of NEMO2, consisting of around 140 Milan nodes and 1000 terabytes (one petabyte) of high-speed storage space, has been ordered. A tender for a GPU partition and a second CPU partition will be opened in early 2024.

Enforcing Two-factor Authentication on NEMO

We will enforce two-factor authentication for NEMO logins in November. Currently, this security feature can be tested on our vis1/2 visualization nodes.
