The main body of the workshop will cover the resource manager and scheduler\, creating submissions scripts to run jobs and the options available in them\, and hands-on experience. By the end of the workshop\, every participant should have created a submission script\, submitted a job\, tracked its progress\, and collected its output. Participants will have several working examples from which to build their own submissions scripts in their own home directories. \nPrerequisites\nObtain a user account on Flux. If you do not have a Flux user account\, click here to go to the account application page at: https://arc-ts.umich.edu/fluxform/ \nRegister for Duo authentication. See below for details. \nThis course assumes familiarity with the Linux command line as might be got from the CSCAR/ARC-TS workshop Introduction to the Linux Command Line. In particular\, participants should understand how files and folders work\, be able to create text files using the nano editor\, be able to create and remove files and folders\, and understand what input and output redirection are and how to use them. \nInstructor\nBennet Fauber\nScientific Applications Analyst\nAdvanced Research Computing — Technology Services \nBennet Fauber is a member of the technical team that administers the Flux cluster. \nMaterials\nIn-class handouts\n\nOutput from qstat\nOutput from checkjob\nOutput from mdiag\nOutput from showq\n\nSupplementary materials\n\nFlux in Ten Easy Steps\nUsing PBS\nUsing software modules\nLinking libraries with applications\nEstablishing and managing a Flux project allocation\n\n\nCourse Preparation\nIn order to participate successfully in the workshop exercises\, you must have a Flux user account and be registered for the Duo authentication service. The user account allows you to log in to the cluster\, create\, compile\, and test applications\, and prepare Flux jobs for submission. Information about registering for Duo is at the ITS Two Factor Authentication web page. \nFlux user account\nA single Flux user account can be used to prepare and submit jobs using various allocations. If you already already possess a user account\, you can use it for this course\, you can skip to “Flux allocation” below. If not\, please visit https://arc-ts.umich.edu/fluxform to obtain one. A user account is free to members of the University community. Please note that obtaining an account requires human processing\, so be sure to do this at least two business days before class begins. \nFlux allocation\nWe create an allocation for the workshop so you can run jobs on the cluster during the workshop and for one day after for those who would like additional practice. The workshop allocation is quite limited and is intended only to run examples to help you cement the details of job submission and management. If you already have an existing Flux allocation\, you can use that\, though if there are any issues with that allocation\, we will ask you to use the workshop allocation. \nLaptop Preparation\nThe classroom contains Windows computers\, which require your uniqname and UMICH password to login\, and which have all necessary software preloaded. \nIf you want to use a laptop for the course\, you are welcome to do so. However\, if there are problems connecting your laptop\, you will be asked to switch to the provided computer for the class.

SUMMARY:Simulation studies in Python
DESCRIPTION:Simulation studies are used to understand the properties of statistical procedures.  This technique is widely used when conducting power analysis for research studies\,  which is one focus for this workshop.  Simulation studies can also be used to assess the performance of statistical procedures in non-standard settings\, such as when there are concerns about missing data\, selection bias\, measurement errors\, or model specification.  Another role for simulation studies is to contrast the performance of alternative statistical methods\, e.g. for prediction. \nThis workshop will emphasize practical aspects of conducting simulation studies using Python\, including data simulation\, automation\, and interpretation and communication of simulation findings.

The user account allows you to log in to the cluster\, create\, compile\, and test applications\, and prepare jobs for submission. The job account allows you to submit those jobs\, executing the applications in parallel on the cluster and charging their resource use against the account. Duo is required to help authenticate you to the cluster. \n\nGREAT LAKES USER ACCOUNT\nIf you already have a Flux user account\, you don’t need to do anything to obtain a Great Lakes user account.  Otherwise\, go to the Flux user account application page at: https://arc-ts.umich.edu/fluxform/ . \nPlease note that obtaining a user account requires human processing\, so be sure to do this at least two business days before class begins. \n\nGREAT LAKES JOB ACCOUNT\nWe create a job account for the workshop so you can run jobs on the cluster during the workshop and for one day after for those who would like additional practice. The workshop job account is quite limited and is intended only to run examples to help you cement the details of job submission and management. If you already have an existing Great Lakes job account\, you can use that\, though if there are any issues with that job account\, we will ask you to use the workshop job account. \n\nDUO AUTHENTICATION\nDuo two-factor authentication is required to log in to the cluster. When logging in\, you will need to type your UMICH (AKA Level 1) password as well as authenticate through Duo in order to access Great Lakes. \nIf you need to enroll in Duo\, follow the instructions at Enroll a Smartphone or Tablet in Duo. \nPlease enroll in Duo before you come to class. \n\nLAPTOP PREPARATION\nYou do not need to bring your own laptop to class. The classroom contains Windows or Mac computers\, which require your uniqname and UMICH (AKA Level 1) password to login\, and that have all necessary software pre-loaded. \nIf you want to use a laptop for the course\, you are welcome to do so:  please see our web page on Preparing your laptop to use Flux. However\, if there are problems connecting your laptop\, you will be asked to switch to the provided computer for the class. We cannot stop to debug connection issues with personal or departmental laptops during the class. \nIf you are unable to attend the presentation in person we will be offering a link into the live course via BlueJeans. Please register as if attending in person.  This will put you on the wait list but we will get your account setup for remote attendance.
