Anvil, located at the Rosen Center for Advanced Computing at Purdue University is a top ranked supercomputer dedicated to open scientific research. It has lots of features that we'll explore today, including:
- 64-core AMD “Optimized 3rd Gen EPYC” CPUs (x 2,096)
- NVIDIA A100 GPUs (x64)
- Single-Node performance of about 5TF (x 1,048)
Here you will find the session agenda along with various resources to help get you up and running on Anvil. We'll take a deep look at the system's design, discuss how research teams write programs for and run workloads on Anvil, and you'll get to run on your own. The session is guided by hands-on challenges.
The first challenge is to successfully log into Anvil and clone this repository.
Each challenge has its own sub-directory under /challenges/
, and includes a
README.md file and any additional files for that challenge. Challenges range in
difficulty from introductory to very complex, and may require research and
reference materials outside of what's provided in this repository.
