As a general-purpose programming language with a growing user-base amongst data scientists, Python is increasingly used for data analysis and machine learning applications at the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ).

In this half-day course several techniques and best practice examples will be demonstrated - empowering participants to use Python effectively on LRZ systems like the Linux Cluster and the LRZ Compute Cloud. The material will be presented as a combination of lectures, demos and hands-on sessions, with a focus on the latter. There will be breaks during the session.

Participants will gain essential knowledge and the skills necessary to use Python on the different systems of the LRZ supercomputing and cloud infrastructure.

Topics covered:

  • Installation of Python packages and libraries

  • Jupyter Notebooks on the Linux Cluster and the Compute Cloud

  • Simple ML applications on the GPU Cloud and the DGX-1 using TensorFlow and Keras

  • Parallel Programming on the Linux Cluster

  • High quality scientific plotting

  • Batch Programming using Slurm and Python on the Linux Cluster
