        Women in HPC @ PRACEdays15

/A Hands-on Introduction to HPC – Monday 25 May to Tuesday 26 May./

In collaboration with the Women in HPC network 
<http://www.womeninhpc.org.uk/>, the PRACE Advanced Training Centres 
<http://www.prace-ri.eu/prace-advanced-training-centres/> (PATC) and the 
UK National Supercomputing Facility, ARCHER <http://www.archer.ac.uk/>, 
we will be running a 1.5 day ‘Hands on Introduction to HPC’ training 
session. This course provides a general introduction to High Performance 
Computing (HPC) using the UK national HPC service, ARCHER, as the 
platform for exercises. Familiarity with desktop computers is presumed 
but no programming or HPC experience is required. Programmers can 
however gain extra benefit from the course as source code for all the 
practicals will be provided. This event is open to everyone interested 
in using HPC, but all our training staff will be women and we hope that 
this provides an opportunity for women to network and build 
collaborations as well as learning new skills for a challenging and 
rewarding career in HPC.

Registration for the Women in HPC satellite event is separate from the 
conference registration.
For more details on the course and to register please visit the PRACE 
training website here <https://events.prace-ri.eu/event/361/?ovw=True>.
