Dask is a powerful Python tool for task-based computing. The Dask library was originally developed to provide parallel and out-of-core versions of common data analysis routines from data analysis packages such as NumPy and Pandas. However, the flexibility and usefulness of the underlying scheduler has led to extensions that enable users to write custom task-based algorithms, and to execute those algorithms on high-performance computing (HPC) resources.
This workshop will be a series of virtual seminars/tutorials on tools in the Dask HPC ecosystem. The event will run online via Zoom for registered participants (“participate” tab) and it will be live streamed via YouTube at https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmhmpa4C4MzZ2_AUSg7Wod62uVwZdw4Rl.
