With the support of the Australian BioCommons and ABACBS, a Bioinformatics Community of Practice (CoP) has been created. This has been launched as a result of the Bioinformatics at Scale and Australia’s Next Generation of Supercomputers event, held earlier in 2021. The CoP will give bioinformaticians using supercomputers the opportunity to share their knowledge and experiences while remaining
Every year, the Pawsey Supercomputing Centre provides access to a range of supercomputing services to the Australian research community and international collaborators. We call this the Pawsey Uptake Projects, which provides researchers with access to dedicated Pawsey staff time for researchers in a collaboration to help maximize the research impact of the Pawsey Supercomputing Centre resources.
The use of containers has become an attractive framework for several areas of research supported by Pawsey (including bioinformatics and machine learning, among others). Pawsey supports the usage of OpenFOAM containers. You can read more in the Pawsey documentation, The most recent supported versions of OpenFOAM. Invitation for Online Training: Training dates will be advised soon.
Opportunities to work with Kubernetes container orchestration, building on Pawsey’s existing container technology for its HPC systems, are some of the features offered by the new refreshed Nimbus cloud, available at Pawsey from April 1st. The new high-throughput computing infrastructure represents a significant improvement from the original Nimbus Cloud, in CPU, memory and storage, providing
