Intro to HPC Workshop March 31, 2023 12:00-2:00pm
March 31 - September 1, 2025
Moving your R based research project from personal computer to HPC cluster
Date: March 31st, 2023
Time: 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM PT
Description: While you may be familiar with running an RStudio session or Rscript on your personal computer, getting your R workflow up and running on UBC ARC Sockeye (“Sockeye”) comes with some additional considerations. These include navigating the command line interface, installing R packages, launching RStudio, and running Rscript. You will also need to request the compute resources for your analysis, including CPU, memory, and run time.
In this session we will walk through the steps required to set up your R analysis on Sockeye, and cover some of the common pitfalls.
Pre-requisites:
- Access to Sockeye. Attendees without access to Sockeye, or with access to other HPC clusters (e.g. Alliance) may still benefit from attending this session.
- Familiarity with the command-line interface
Instructors: Jeff Gardner, Jerry Li
