Unix Shell

21/01/2025

PGR Learning Lab 6.19 HDB

The Unix shell has been around longer than most of its users have been alive. It has survived because it's a powerful tool that allows users to perform complex and powerful tasks, often with just a few keystrokes or lines of code. It helps users automate repetitive tasks and easily combine smaller tasks into larger, more powerful workflows. Use of the shell is fundamental to a wide range of advanced computing tasks, including high-performance computing. These lessons will introduce you to this powerful tool.

Version Control with Git

04/02/2025

BSTC.3.30.CHART.PC

Version control is the lab notebook of the digital world: it's what professionals use to keep track of what they've done and to collaborate with other people. Every large software development project relies on it, and most programmers use it for their small jobs as well. And it isn't just for software: books, papers, small data sets, and anything that changes over time or needs to be shared can and should be stored in a version control system.

Programming with Python

18/02/2025

BSTC.3.30.CHART.PC

This lesson serves as an introduction to Python 3 for people with little or no previous programming experience.

HPC Day 1 of 2 - Unix Shell

11-12/03/2025

Barbara Strang Teaching Centre - Day 1: Room 2.40

This two-day course covers High Performance Computing (HPC) and how to access remote advanced computing facilities via the command line. The first day will introduce how to use the shell in an HPC context. The second day will cover how to use HPC systems effectively. Please note that the first day is optional in case you’re already familiar with the shell.

Introduction to IoT

08/04/2025

PGR Learning Lab 6.19 HDB

This is a hands-on workshop for novices, aiming to give learners a better understanding of what The Internet of Things is. As a researcher you might be interested to know whether IoT is something that could be of benefit to you in your research and we hope that this workshop might help you answer that question.
