One day grid engine training seminar in Boston

Posted by chris Fri, 12 May 2006 00:56:53 GMT

Time for a brief commercial announcement. This is part of an ongoing personal experiment to see if there actually is demand for user and usage-centric Grid Engine training.

A 1-day seminar on "Grid Engine 6 Intro & Usage" will be offered on June 2, 2006 in the Boston area.

Intended Audience:

Anyone interested in a user-centric view of distributed computing with Grid Engine. Note: this is not an advanced operator/admin course.

Our goal is to help users, application integrators and developers understand Grid Engine features and capabilities in a way that allows them to become more productive at home. New SGE cluster operators or administrators also may benefit from the user and usage-centric perspective.

The seminar will be taught with a life science informatics focus, using bioinformatics workflows and applications as examples. As Grid Engine usage and configuration patterns can differ significantly between disciplines and industries, interested non-life-science attendees should contact us in advance to determine if this seminar will be a good fit.
