Monday 26 May 2025, 12:00 → 14:30 Europe/Zurich

Online

This course provides an introduction into the Jülich Benchmarking Environment (JUBE), a workflow management system created for running performance benchmarks on high-performance computing (HPC) systems. JUBE can also be used for general workflows involving running applications on HPC systems, and this course will further provide an example on how to run the molecular-dynamic code GROMACS and will discuss aspects of workflow reproducibility in JUBE.

Target audience:

Users of HPC systems that need to run parameterizable workflows and want to automate recording of specific aspects of these workflows automatically.

Prerequisites:

• Basic knowledge of constructing shell and/or Python expressions
• Basic knowledge of either XML or YAML
• Access to an HPC system
• Basic experience of interacting with a batch system (such as SLURM)

Format: 

150 minute interactive online course with hands-on exercises
