Free Cluster-Building Workshops March 16-17 & April 20-21, 2006 Urbana, Il http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Training/Workshop/Cluster2006/ In March and April, the Theoretical and Computational Biophysics Group will host a pair of free workshops dedicated to teaching users and system administrators how to specify, design, build, and run a high- performance Linux PC cluster for scientific computing. Starting with a discussion of clustering basics, participants will actually build their own cluster and get to test out their own applications. This workshop is aimed at systems administrators that want a greater understanding of cluster technologies, as well as those end-users that want to better understand the systems that they work on for their day-to-day work. A basic understanding of system administration techniques is assumed; basic knowledge and understanding of Unix systems is recommended, but not required. Enrollment is limited to 24 participants per session. More details, including the scheduled program and copies of the lectures and texts of the hands-on tutorials, are available at the above web site. DEADLINES - applications must be received by the following dates; we will notify all applicants by the given notification date.
