For every Workshop or Training Request, ARCC requires specific information in order to fulfill the request and plan for required resources and environmental requirements. Please review the list of required information and provide any information required when making your request.

Timeframe

  • Please include a timeframe for your training/workshop including scheduled timeframes to perform testing beforehand.

Hardware Requirements

If the workshop requires hardware prerequisites, ARCC would need to verify the hardware is available, and if so, those hardware resources may need to be requested and reserved for a point in time with which your training/workshop is taking place.

  • Please provide a list of hardware you require access to during the workshop

Project Creation

A project creation will be required if the workshop or training will be using any HPC resources. Please provide the following information:

  • A project/workshop name
  • The name of the PI/Instructor affiliated with UW
  • The instructor’s contact information
  • Department of affiliation
  • Project/workshop abstract
  • Indicate which ARCC HPC resources you will need access to. These include but are not limited to:
    • Beartooth (ARCC’s core HPC service)
      • Southpass (Beartooth Web Interface)
    • Wildiris (Specialized cluster to enable outreach between IDeA, INBRE and Wyoming Community College)
    • Loren (Specialty GPU Cluster for exclusive use)
    • Alcova (High performance data storage geared towards project-oriented data storage and published research data)
    • Pathfinder (Low-cost storage enabling a cloud-like presence for research data)
    • Muskat (Specialty storage for exclusive use)
    • Gitlab (Collaborative code development service)

Software Requests

If the workshop requires specific software to run on the cluster, this would be required in the request and may require installation and/or configuration on the cluster.

We ask for:

  • License information (if any)
  • Where (on which ARCC resources) the software should be installed
  • Which libraries will be necessary - those used along side a specific programming language
  • Software version
  • Underlying software dependencies
  • Link(s) to the software source

Number of Users and Account Types

Total User Count

  • Provide a count for how many total users are planned to access HPC resources during the training - This may be an estimate with a hard maximum cap.

External Trainers/External Collaborators

If any external users will be doing training and will not be physically on campus, they will likely require an external collaborator account.

Note that external collaborator accounts are subject to a one-time 10$ charge from UW IT.

If your training will be including external collaborators, please include that in your request. Provide the following information for any external trainers:

  • Name
  • E-Mail
  • External organization
  • Phone number

Training Account Checkout

If the training/workshop will be provided to students outside/external to UWyo, you may check out training accounts for them. ARCC maintains 25 training accounts for various computation related courses that require temporary access to ARCC HPC resources and these are subject to the students being provided physical access to the hardware keys to log into the accounts. Please include the dates you need to reserve these training accounts.
