Improving Analysis Workflows with Snakemake
Registration
Registration is now closed (this event already took place).
Details
Learning objectives: Attendees will learn how to convert their workflows to snakemake and get them running with a slurm scheduler.
Knowledge prerequisites: Basic Linux, HPC, and some familiarity with Conda.
Hardware/software prerequisites: (1) Bring a laptop which can connect to the eduroam wireless network. You will also need to be able to Duo authenticate to use campus resources. (2) Have an SSH client installed on your laptop. (3) Register for an account on Adroit. This is the cluster we will use for demonstration purposes. Make sure you can SSH to Adroit before the workshop. (4) Create a Conda environment and install snakemake.
Workshop format: Demonstration and hands-on
