Knowledge Base Resources
These resources have been contributed and “vetted” by the community of cyberinfrastructure professionals (researchers, research computing facilitators, research software engineers and HPC system administrators) that are participating in programs such as this one, that are supported by the ConnectCI community management platform. Additional Knowledge Base Resources are always welcome!

Open OnDemand is an easy-to-use web portal that lets students, researchers, and industry professionals use supercomputers from anywhere. It is installed on supercomputing resources at hundreds of sites. By eliminating the need for client software or command-line interface, Open OnDemand empowers users of all skill levels and significantly speeds up the time to their first computing.
HPC Carpentry
1
An HPC focused Carpentry community. Trainings include: HPC fundamentals, python, chapel, LAMMPS, parallelization with python, scaling studies, etc.
Better Scientific Software (BSSw)
0
The Better Scientific Software (BSSw) project provides a community to collaborate and learn about best practices in scientific software development. Software—the foundation of discovery in computational science & engineering—faces increasing complexity in computational models and computer architectures. BSSw provides a central hub for the community to address pressing challenges in software productivity, quality, and sustainability.
Research Software Engineering Training Materials
0
An ongoing collection of RSE training material, workshops, and resources. We are compiling this list as a starting point for future activities. We are especially seeking material that goes beyond basic research computing competency (e.g. what The Carpentries does so well) and is general enough to span multiple domains. Specific tools and technologies used only in one domain, or applicable to only one subset of computing (i.e. HPC) are typically too narrowly focused. When in doubt, submit it to be included or reach out and we’d be happy to discuss.
Expanse Home Page
0
Expanse at SDSC is a cluster designed by Dell and SDSC delivering 5.16 peak petaflops, and offers Composable Systems and Cloud Bursting.
Slurm Scheduling Software Documentation
0
Slurm is an open source, fault-tolerant, and highly scalable cluster management and job scheduling system for large and small Linux clusters. Slurm requires no kernel modifications for its operation and is relatively self-contained. As a cluster workload manager, Slurm has three key functions. First, it allocates exclusive and/or non-exclusive access to resources (compute nodes) to users for some duration of time so they can perform work. Second, it provides a framework for starting, executing, and monitoring work (normally a parallel job) on the set of allocated nodes. Finally, it arbitrates contention for resources by managing a queue of pending work.
Regulated Research Community of Practice
0
The daily news clearly shows the increasing threat to safety and privacy of data, personal as well as intellectual property. While the requirements such as DFARS 7012, HIPAA, and Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) improve the consistency of data handling between agencies and contractors and grantees, it leaves academic institutions to figure out how to meet such requirements in a cost-effective way that fits the research and education mission of the institution. Most institutions, agencies, and companies act in isolation with one-off contract language to address data security and safeguarding concerns. Even though cybersecurity has a clear and uniform goal of protecting data, a onesize solution does not fit all academic institutions.
By supporting this community with development of a community strategic roadmap, regular discussions and workshops, and a repository of generalized and specific resources for handling regulated research programs RRCoP lowers the barrier to entry for institutions handling new regulations.
Neurodesk
0
Neurodesk provides a containerised data analysis environment to facilitate reproducible analysis of neuroimaging data. Analysis pipelines for neuroimaging data typically rely on specific versions of packages and software, and are dependent on their native operating system. These dependencies mean that a working analysis pipeline may fail or produce different results on a new computer, or even on the same computer after a software update. Neurodesk provides a platform in which anyone, anywhere, using any computer can reproduce your original research findings given the original data and analysis code.
fast.ai
0
Fastai offers many tools to people working with machine learning and artifical intelligence including tutorials on PyTorch in addition to their own library built on PyTorch, news articles, and other resources to dive into this realm.
Educause HEISC-800-171 Community Group
0
The purpose of this group is to provide a forum to discuss NIST 800-171 compliance. Participants are encouraged to collaborate and share effective practices and resources that help higher education institutions prepare for and comply with the NIST 800-171 standard as it relates to Federal Student Aid (FSA), CMMC, DFARS, NIH, and NSF activities.

ConnectCI
0
Connect.Cybinfrastructure is a family of portals, each representing a program that is serving a segment of the research computing and data community. Each portal provides program-specific information, as well a custom "view" into a common database. The portal was originally developed to support project workflows and a knowledge base of self service learning resources for the Northeast Cyberteam. Subsequently, it was expanded to provide support to multiple cyberteams and other research computing communities of practice. We welcome additional communities, please contact us if you are interested in participating. Central to the Portal is an extensive and ever-evolving tagging infrastructure which informs every aspect of the Portal. The tag taxonomy was initially developed by the Northeast Cyberteam to categorize subject matter relevant to practitioners of Research Computing Facilitation and is ever changing due to the frequent introduction of new technology in domains that characterize the field of research computing.
