HPC Wiki

Welcome to the HPC Wiki! This aims to be a site-independent HPC documentation. This means all the site specifics are bundled in the site specifics section on the left hand site and all other articles should be held as general and site-independent as possible.

On the left there are different target groups and with their respective material.

Categories

Getting_Started is a basic guide for first-time users. It covers a wide range of topics from access and login to system-independant concepts of Unix systems to data transfers. While this gives an overview, all articles in the Basics Section are written with really inexperienced users in mind, to explain concepts in an easy-to-understand way.

A similar article in the Users and Developer Section are planned, but not yet finished.

Look into the FAQs to see tips and instructions how to contribute to this Wiki.
