Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe


S


PRACE, the Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe, is a Belgian international non-profit organisation (aisbl) with its seat in Brussels.


PRACE provides a persistent pan-European Research Infrastructure (RI) of world-class supercomputers open to all disciplines of research.


PRACE powers excellent science and engineering and serves as a vital catalyst to foster European competitiveness.

PRACE MOOCs via Future Learn SUPERCOMPUTING


d


This course will describe what supercomputers are, what they are used for and how to exploit their full computational potential. We will describe how modern computer simulations are performed and give examples of the scientific breakthroughs made possible by modern computer technology. All technical aspects will be covered at a conceptual level and there is no requirement to be able to write computer programs. However, anyone with existing programming experience will also be able to understand how programming modern supercomputers differs from programming a desktop PC.

MANAGING BIG DATA WITH R AND HADOOP This course will introduce the concepts, tools, and techniques that enable the management and analysis of big data. Starting with an introduction to Linux, the course builds to explore R, Rstudio, Apache Haddoop and RHaddoop. Statistical concepts such as supervised and unsupervised learning and regression and classification problems will be explored through big data examples.


Both MOOCs will start March 2017 – stay up to date and visit www.prace-ri.eu or www.futurelearn.com.
