Overview

Hi! This is the homepage of the High Performance Computing (HPC) class taught at FSU Jena by the Scalable Data- and Compute-intensive Analyses lab. Most information will be shared here. However, some data, e.g., data concerning exams, will be shared only through respective FSU channels: e-mail, Moodle or Friedolin.

Let me know if you get stuck, stumble over errors, or have any other feedback:

Format

The lectures and labs take place during the following time slots:

  • Tue, 08:30AM - 10:00AM

  • Thu, 10:15PM - 11:45AM

All meetings are face-to-face in room 3220, EAP2.

The lectures will be recorded to support your learning experience. The recordings are no substitute for attending the class in-person and there are no guarantees that this will work flawlessly. In short: Only consider the recordings to be a bonus!

The class has a Matrix room hosted on the university’s Matrix server. You may join the channel with any Matrix account, including those registered with other servers. The Matrix invite to the class’s room is shared in Moodle. The room is not encrypted, and you will only see the room’s history from the time since you joined.
