Introduction to Advanced Research Computing (ARC)

Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU) collaborates with partners in Canada’s Digital Research Infrastructure (DRI) community to connect our researchers with cutting-edge research services and resources that allow them to perform computationally and data-intensive research and data management. These services include high-performance computing and collecting, documenting, sharing and storing research data using high-speed networks, software and data management services through the Digital Research Alliance of Canada (DRAC).

Join TMU professor and Multimedia Research Laboratory director Naimul Khan for an introductory workshop targeted toward Principal Investigators (PIs) and graduate students looking for computational power for their data analysis and processing tasks. The workshop will provide a high-level overview of the resources available at DRAC, some example research projects taking advantage of the compute facilities at DRAC, and a brief overview of how to transfer your data to DRAC servers and get your python code running. 

No prior experience with coding in Python is required.
