Unlike previous assignments, you will have two weeks to complete it and will be required to run your code on the sic-cluster for one of the exercises. We have distributed credentials to each of you and you should be able to find them on your Personal Status page. If you cannot find your credentials on your personal status page, please notify us as soon as possible. We also recommend that you start sooner rather than later so problems related to the cluster can be identified early on. Working with clusters for the first time can be tedious, but this is a good opportunity to practice as you may need to work with clusters for your thesis or later in your career. (Even if you already have enough points to qualify for the exam.) Kind regards, NNIA Team |
