Well worth it! Moving from a laptop to Bunya HPC

At UQRUG this month, we have a special guest, David Green from the RCC providing an overview on how to run your R scripts on a High Performance Computer (HPC).

In this session, we will trace the steps taken by the many UQ researchers using R who have wanted, or needed, stronger (or more numerous) computers on which to run their codes.

There are tremendous benefits to porting your R computations to the high-performance computing (HPC) environment. But there are also some obstacles to overcome, especially with the ease of use and a few gotchas. Some recent innovations on the Bunya HPC system are addressing some of those obstacles, including the new graphical user interface that allows you to run RStudio too!
