Do your computational needs exceed the capabilities of a standard desktop computer? Join us for a series of hands-on workshops where you will gain key skills for working on the HPC Trdina supercomputer and enter the world of High-Performance Computing (HPC).

Workshop HPC in Practice I: From Linux to Containers

SESSION 1: Linux and Slurm

When: Wednesday, April 22, 2026 | 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM (including break)

Where: FIŠ (online)

• 9:00 – 10:30 | Linux Command Line: Your First Contact with HPC Master the terminal, the entry point to all modern HPC clusters. You will learn navigation, file management, and writing automation scripts. Lecturer: Srdjan Škrbić
• 11:00 – 12:30 | Slurm: How to Tame a Supercomputer? Learn how to submit jobs, manage processing and graphics resources (CPU/GPU), and optimize job queues. Lecturer: Jani Pogačar

SESSION 2: Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Tools

When: Thursday, April 23, 2026 | 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM (including break)

Where: FIŠ (online)

• 9:00 – 10:00 | Apptainer: Portability Without Limits Discover the power of containerization (formerly Singularity). Create an environment that works anywhere, independent of the cluster’s operating system. Lecturer: Robi Pritržnik
• 10:30 – 12:30 | ML Examples on HPC Trdina Practical examples of Machine Learning directly on our infrastructure—from environment setup to your first trained network. Lecturer: Srdjan Škrbić
