Summer School June 3-21, 2024

The Compute Ontario Summer School is an annual online training event covering a variety of introductory and advanced topics in advanced research computing (ARC), high-performance computing (HPC), and research data management (RDM). Jointly organized by SHARCNET, SciNet, Centre for Advanced Computing, and in collaboration with the RDM Network of Experts, the 2024 summer school will offer 40 courses, ranging in length from 1 to 18 hours. In response to survey feedback, this year’s summer school offers additional domain-specific content (Computational Fluid Dynamics, Bioinformatics) and more courses focused on AI, Machine Learning and neural networks. Whether you are interested in a specific topic or wish to explore multiple areas, you have the freedom to register for one, some, or all of the courses available. Registration will open in mid-May.

The Summer School offers:

  • Two parallel streams, ensuring flexibility and tailored learning experiences.

  • Sessions five days a week, providing ample opportunities to enhance your knowledge and skills.

  • Six hours of immersive learning each day in each stream, allowing for a deep dive into the subject matter.

  • Workshops and presentations on advanced research computing, high-performance computing tools, programming languages, machine learning, visualization, programming GPUs, bioinformatics, research data management, and more.

  • Difficulty levels ranging from beginner to intermediate to advanced, with prerequisites clearly outlined in each workshop description.
