Abstract:The Rust programming language was created when Graydon Hoare was frustrated with the elevator in his apartment building being out of order due to a Windows blue screen of death. In the decade since its 1.0 release, Rust has been the "most loved" programming language on StackOverflow for a number of years, and has gained a reputation for high performance (comparable to C), high productivity (comparable to Go) and correctness (comparable to Haskell). I have been using Rust in my research group (Algorithms for Big Data) for the past 5 years, and also have been teaching my undergraduate machine organization course in Rust (previously it was in C) for about as long.In this interactive workshop, we will start with a brief introduction to Rust (just the basics) and then look at how to easily parallelize a computation across multiple cores using the excellent Rayon library. We will wrap up with multi-node distributed computation via an OpenMPI-compatible library. I'll make all code we write available on my website.Bio:Prof. Daniels is an associate professor of computer science, with the majority of his research focused on algorithms for "big data" -- essentially, sublinear-time algorithms for problems such as search or sequence alignment, trying to leverage the manifold structure of high-dimensional data. He did a postdoc in mathematics at MIT with Bonnie Berger and a Ph.D in computer science at Tufts University with Lenore Cowen, focused on problems in computational biology ranging from protein structure prediction to biological sequence analysis. More recently, he has also been interested in applying "manifold mapping" ideas to problems in astronomy, cybersecurity, and machine learning.It will be available by zoom here (note free registration): https://uri-edu.zoom.us/j/97633357732?pwd=rsZZMWaxvvEUlYahLgOp7qeDHp1D99.1#success (though we will have an in-person option as well)Background resources, for those who want to get a leg up, are primarily here: https://www.rust-lang.org/learn (there are three different resources there, which will appeal to different learning styles).The Rayon parallelization library is documented here: https://docs.rs/rayon/latest/rayon/The mpi library is documented here: https://docs.rs/mpi/latest/mpi/

In an electronic learning environment, it can be difficult to know how your students are doing in your course. Fortunately, Brightspace offers a comprehensive module that will help you to gain a deeper understanding of how your students are progressing, and who may need additional support.Register

This workshop is intended for anyone interested in bioinformatics and will be divided into two parts. We will begin with a demonstration of protein structure prediction on the Unity cluster using ColabFold. A written tutorial will be provided to participants beforehand. The second half will take the form of office hours, giving participants the opportunity to ask bioinformatics-related questions and to receive help with running their pipelines on the Unity cluster. This session will be available over zoom and in-person. If you want to join in person, you will find us in room 203 (also called conference room A) of the Robert L. Carothers Library located on the URI Kingston campus.

This one-time Beginner Course will help build a foundation for understanding SAS. This course will cover the basics of SAS, and introduce students to both SASOnDemand for Students and SAS 9.4.

The Introduction to Unity webinar will explain how to get started using Unity, a high-performance computing cluster located at the Massachusetts Green High Performance Computing Center. While it is geared towards new users, effort will be made to adapt the webinar to the experience level of the attendees.

Using digital items, understanding ways to reduce your file size and manage your storage is critical. Large files, images,and videos slow down Brightspace, while large storage demands affect users' computer speed, live exchanges, email exchanges, and digital collaboration.Come and learn from and work alongside an IT professional how to compress different file types, manage storage effectively, and reduce unnecessary data accumulation. This workshop aims to equip faculty with practical strategies to streamline their digital workflows, ensuring faster access to information for oneself and students as well as enabling more efficient use of institutional storage resources.Register
