Overview
VSC-Intro-CCLM is a special edition to onboard students of the lecture "Dynamical Downscaling and regional climate modelling with CCLM" on VSC-5.
In this course we will help you getting started on the VSC clusters, Austria's most powerful supercomputers. We'll focus on using the VSC clusters and especially their queuing system efficiently.
With running and developing software on a supercomputer there are many similarities and fewer but crucial differences compared to your desktop PC. Focusing on hands-on teaching throughout the course, you will immediately try out what you've heard and adapt it to your own needs.
