Basic Unix/Linux and compute cluster usage
Aim
The field of bioinformatics is rooted in UNIX/Linux. The aim of this workshop is to demonstrate basic UNIX commands, and how to use LUNARC to store data and run jobs (such as sequence alignment) using the queuing system.
Topics include
- Navigating folders and listing files
- Making and deleting folders
- Copying/Moving data
- Finding files
- Searching for expressions in files from the command line, and joining files together
- Compressing and extracting files
- Getting data to Lunarc using sftp
- Connecting to Lunarc via Thinlinc
- Using the module system to load software
- Setting up a job and submitting it to the queue
The detailed schedule will be distributed to accepted participants prior to the start of the workshop.
Number of participants
5-10
Entry requirements
- Participants are expected to use their own computers.
- LUNARC account
This workshop is organised by the Research School in Stem Cell Biology in collaboration with the StemTherapy Bioinformatics Core Facility. Please be aware that the number of participants is limited.
