MICDE's Center for Scientific Software Infrastructure encourages you to check out this webinar! This webinar is part of the HPC Best Practices webinar series. This series address issues faced by developers of computational science and engineering (CSE) software on high-performance computers (HPC). Software quality in a research context is essential because research software is used […]
Each section will go over one chapter from the materials at https://cscar.github.io/workshop-spss/ Section 1: Basics of SPSS (9/16, 10am - 12pm) Section 2: Variables (9/23, 10am - 12pm) Section 3: Data Management (9/30, 10am - 12pm) Section 4: Basic Statistical Analysis (10/7, 10am - 12pm) It is strongly encouraged to have SPSS installed on your machine. If you […]
This workshop will provide a gentle introduction to GIS concepts and implementation in QGIS. We will cover introductory GIS concepts and will explore the functionalities of QGIS for manipulating and analyzing vector GIS data. The workshop will be especially useful for participants with little or no exposure to GIS. Participants will also learn to generate production quality maps. No […]
This workshop will introduce you to the NumPy library in Python, which is useful in scientific computing. We will cover NumPy’s n-dimensional array object and associated functions in depth, along with related linear algebra and random number capabilities. Some familiarity with Python is expected. The workshop will be done online via BlueJeans. We will run […]
This course will familiarize the student with the basics of accessing and interacting with Linux computers using the GNU/Linux operating system’s Bash shell, also generically referred to as “the command line”. Topics include: a brief overview of Linux, the Bash shell, navigating the file system, basic commands, shell redirection, permissions, processes, and the command environment. […]

This workshop will delve into common data processing and exploration techniques using R. The main focus will be on constructing and manipulating R data objects, and using packages that enhance and facilitate operations that typically arise when dealing with data, including faster I/O, variable creation and manipulation, and grouped operations, especially as a prelude to […]
The hackathon’s goal is to introduce the Simple Run-Time Infrastructure software toolkit (SRTI) to the participants, and provide a template project consisting of multiple simulators, each with a specialized purpose, relating to a natural-disaster scenario. This is a free event and all students from any school/institution are welcome. You need basic coding skills to participate. […]
