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.

Introductory Tutorial to Numpy and Pandas for Data Analysis
0
In this tutorial, I present an overview with many examples of the use of Numpy and Pandas for data analysis. Beginners in the field of data analysis can find It incredibly helpful, and at the same time, anyone who already has experience in data analysis and needs a refresher can find value in it. I discuss the use of Numpy for analyzing 1D and 2D multidimensional data and an introduction on using Pandas to manipulate CSV files.

Vulkan Support Survey across Systems
0
It's not uncommon to see beautiful visualizations in HPC center galleries, but the majority of these are either rendered off the HPC or created using programs that run on OpenGL or custom rasterization techniques. To put it simply the next generation of graphics provided by OpenGL's successor Vulkan is strangely absent in the super computing world. The aim of this survey of available resources is to determine the systems that can support Vulkan workflows and programs. This will assist users in getting past some of the first hurdles in using Vulkan in HPC contexts.

Python Tools for Data Science
0
Python has become a very popular programming language and software ecosystem for work in Data Science, integrating support for data access, data processing, modeling, machine learning, and visualization. In this webinar, we will describe some of the key Python packages that have been developed to support that work, and highlight some of their capabilities. This webinar will also serve as an introduction and overview of topics addressed in two Cornell Virtual Workshop tutorials, available at https://cvw.cac.cornell.edu/pydatasci1 and https://cvw.cac.cornell.edu/pydatasci2
Solving differential equations with Physics-informed Neural Network
0
Differential equations, the backbone of countless physical phenomena, have traditionally been solved using numerical methods or analytical techniques. However, the advent of deep learning introduces an intriguing alternative: Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs). By leveraging the representational power of neural networks and integrating physical laws (like differential equations), PINNs offer a novel approach to solving complex problems. This guide walks through an implementation of a PINN to solve DEs such as the logistic equation.
Developer Stories Podcast
0
As developers, we get excited to think about challenging problems. When you ask us what we are working on, our eyes light up like children in a candy store. So why is it that so many of our developer and software origin stories are not told? How did we get to where we are today, and what did we learn along the way? This podcast aims to look “Behind the Scenes of Tech’s Passion Projects and People.” We want to know your developer story, what you have built, and why. We are an inclusive community - whatever kind of institution or country you hail from, if you are passionate about software and technology you are welcome!

Examples of code using JSON nlohmann header only Library for C++
0
This code showcases how to work with the header-only nlohmann JSON library for C++. In order to compile, change the extensions from json_test.txt to json_test.cpp and test.txt to test.json. You must also download the header files from https://github.com/nlohmann/json. Complilation instructions are at the bottom of json_test. This code is very helpful for creating config files, for example.

Setting up PyFR flow solver on clusters
0
These instructions were executed on the FASTER and Grace cluster computing facilities at Texas A&M University. However, the process can be applied to other clusters with similar environments. For local installation, please refer to the PyFR documentation.
Please note that these instructions were valid at the time of writing. Depending on the time you're executing these, the versions of the modules may need to be updated.
1. Loading Modules
The first step involves loading pre-installed software libraries required for PyFR. Execute the following commands in your terminal to load these modules:
module load foss/2022b
module load libffi/3.4.4
module load OpenSSL/1.1.1k
module load METIS/5.1.0
module load HDF5/1.13.1
2. Python Installation from Source
Choose a location for Python 3.11.1 installation, preferably in a .local directory. Navigate to the directory containing the Python 3.11.1 source code. Then configure and install Python:
cd $INSTALL/Python-3.11.1/
./configure --prefix=$LOCAL --enable-shared --with-system-ffi --with-openssl=/sw/eb/sw/OpenSSL/1.1.1k-GCCcore-11.2.0/ PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$LOCAL/pkgconfig LDFLAGS=/usr/lib64/libffi.so.6.0.2
make clean; make -j20; make install;
3. Virtual Environment Setup
A virtual environment allows you to isolate Python packages for this project from others on your system. Create and activate a virtual environment using:
pip3.11 install virtualenv
python3.11 -m venv pyfr-venv
. pyfr-venv/bin/activate
4. Install PyFR Dependencies
Several Python packages are required for PyFR. Install these packages using the following commands:
pip3 install --upgrade pip
pip3 install --no-cache-dir wheel
pip3 install --no-cache-dir botorch pandas matplotlib pyfr
pip3 uninstall -y pyfr
5. Install PyFR from Source
Finally, navigate to the directory containing the PyFR source code, and then install PyFR:
cd /scratch/user/sambit98/github/PyFR/
python3 setup.py develop
Congratulations! You've successfully set up PyFR on the FASTER and Grace cluster computing facilities. You should now be able to use PyFR for your computational fluid dynamics simulations.
