Advanced LUMI Training, October 28-31, 2024

Course organisation

  • Location: SURF, Science Park 140, 1098 XG Amsterdam, The Netherlands

  • The public transportation is run by GVB.

    • Whatever type of ticket you have, you always need to check in and check out.

      It is now perfectly possible to do so with your bank card, but of course you should use the same one to check in and check out.

      If you use your bank card, you can use their app Gappie to follow up your use. The app also provides routing, and you can by regular single or multi-day tickets in it that will then work with a QR code.

    • Gappie app for iOS and Gappie app for Android

    • Multi-day tickets are interesting if you take public transportation a lot. You can buy them in the Gappie app, but opening the app and scanning the QR code is a slow process compared to tapping a credit card on the reader. If all travel you need is from a hotel in the centre to the venue and back, it isn't worth it.

  • Amsterdam is more than canals and the red light district

  • Original schedule (PDF)

    Dynamic schedule (adapted as the course progresses)

    The dynamic schedule also contains links to pages with information about the course materials, but those links are also available below on this page.

  • During the course, there are two Slurm reservations available:

    • CPU nodes: lumic_ams
    • GPU nodes: lumig_ams

    They can be used in conjunction with the training project project_465001362.

    Note that the reservations and course project should only be used for making the exercises during the course and not for running your own jobs. The resources allocated to the course are very limited.
