--- title: Introduction type: slides order: 1 --- # Green Digital Skills ### Prinses Máxima Centrum 21st November 2024 === ### Who we are

- Netherlands eScience Center - The national centre for research software - Collaboratively design sustainable software with researchers, and build digital skills and expertise through teaching - SURF - The ICT cooperative of Dutch education and research institutions

=== ### Why do we care? ![Relevant projects at NLeSC](media/relevant-projects.png) Note: At eScience Center we have many projects concerning environmental destruction due to climate change. We all have expertise in HPC and (computationally) efficient computing so the energy aspects are increasingly interesting to us too. === ![More projects](media/more_projects.png) Note: The TulipaEnergyModel is developed as part of a project to make optimal decisions in the electricity energy market, taking into account its interactions and couplings with other energy sectors (including various renewables). KernelTuner helps to optimize your GPU kernel code within certain chosen metrics, which can be chosen to help lower overall energy cost. === ### Before we start - This is a pilot workshop - this is the first time we teach this. - You are a diverse crowd! - No "one-size-fits-all" approach - This is a broad and high-level introduction to a very deep area - We want to help you find the aspect you are interested in and get you set up Note: We have people who maybe do data analysis, some scripting (R, Python?) but also others launching some much more complex bioinformatics workflows, and submitting jobs to HPC (either your local cluster or Snellius) We have tried to include something for everyone here, to get you started with where to go for further expertise For the technical aspects there are many good (but much longer) courses available that go into this in depth We also give best practices that you might not have considered, or discussion points regarding the need for policy We want you to get set up with the tools you might need and know where to look to pursue that further === ### Schedule | Time | | | :--- | :--- | | 10:30-11:00 | Walk in with tea and coffee | | 11:00-12:00 | Lecture | | 12:00-12:45 | Lunch | | 12:45-13:45 | Hands-on workshop part 1 | | 13:45-14:00 | Break | | 14:00-14:45 | Hands-on workshop part 2 | | 14:45-15:15 | Wrap up & drinks | === www.esciencecenter.nl info@esciencecenter.nl 020 - 460 47 70
