<strong class="">ANNOUNCING THE OSG VIRTUAL SCHOOL 2021!</strong><br class="">
<br class="">
If you could access hundreds or even thousands of computers for your scholarly work or the work you support, what could you do? How could it transform research? What discoveries might be made?<br class="">
<br class="">
We are seeking applicants for the OSG Virtual School 2021, which will take place the weeks of <strong class="">August 2-6 and 9-13</strong>. As the name indicates, the School will be all virtual again this year.<br class="">
<br class="">
Please see the <a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__wisc.us3.list-2Dmanage.com_track_click-3Fu-3D114fa2e78e0c95bb7671fc015-26id-3Df99c9cac2f-26e-3Dadc8456f93&d=DwMBaQ&c=CJqEzB1piLOyyvZjb8YUQw&r=CXxSQCZTYgb_HBf-ctTZhQ&m=IVLIXsZKdhBq8e0Su8E5ypg0mYKpnyuSLmsQnlwhyK0&s=UbzEUZFsxp3HZeDEudjs0xykbRXFd2BqniO96rqEm5k&e=" target="_blank" style="word-wrap: break-word; color: rgb(109, 198, 221);" class="">main
website</a> for the event.<br class="">
<br class="">
Participants will learn to use high throughput computing (HTC) to harness vast amounts of computing power for research, applicable to nearly any field of study. In past Schools, we have helped people in physics, chemistry, engineering, life sciences, earth
sciences, agricultural and animal sciences, economics, social sciences, medicine, and more.<br class="">
<br class="">
For more background, see the <a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__wisc.us3.list-2Dmanage.com_track_click-3Fu-3D114fa2e78e0c95bb7671fc015-26id-3Dfc5194b365-26e-3Dadc8456f93&d=DwMBaQ&c=CJqEzB1piLOyyvZjb8YUQw&r=CXxSQCZTYgb_HBf-ctTZhQ&m=IVLIXsZKdhBq8e0Su8E5ypg0mYKpnyuSLmsQnlwhyK0&s=P67Vh_KGU6SlcvJIGgUxhctrDl1TQniWeTozYAhZA0M&e=" target="_blank" style="word-wrap: break-word; color: rgb(109, 198, 221);" class="">CHTC
website</a>.<br class="">
<br class="">
Using lectures, demonstrations, hands-on exercises, and one-on-one consulting with OSG experts in HTC, participants will learn how HTC systems work, how to run and manage many jobs and huge datasets, how to implement a realistic scientific computing workflow,
and most importantly, how to get your own research work up and running during the event.<br class="">
<br class="">
Participation in the event is free, but a selective application process is required.<br class="">
<br class="">
Ideal candidates are graduate students doing research and staff (e.g., facilitators, admins) supporting research that involves or could involve large-scale computing - work that cannot be done on one laptop or a handful of computers. Also, we accept some post-doctoral
students, faculty, research staff, and advanced undergraduates, so make a strong case for yourself regardless of your current role!<br class="">
