All-provider course timetable

This course is part of the Scientific Computing series.

This is a simple introduction to using MPI for writing parallel programs to run on clusters and multi-CPU systems, for the purposes of "high-performance computing". It will cover the principles of MPI, and teach the use of the basic facilities of MPI (i.e. the ones that are used in most HPC applications), so that attendees will be able to write serious programs using it. It will describe other features that may be useful, but not teach their use. Any requests for particular coverage will be welcomed, but cannot be promised.

The course is designed to take someone from having no knowledge of the Unix command line to being able to navigate around directories, and doing simple file manipulation. Then some of the more basic commands, will be introduced, including information on how to get more help from the system itself. Finally accessing remote computers by ssh and the most basic of shell scripts will be introduced.

The Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) programme is open to University IT Supporters. It covers network technology, protocols and theory at deeper levels reflective of university practices. There is a fee to attend this course.

You will learn the basics of routing, switching, and advanced technologies to acquire the skills required to provide a robust and secure network in your institution and it prepares you for CCNA certification.

We offer this program as instructor led with remote access to the curriculum and an online networks laboratory called NETLAB. There is a mix of lecture, demonstrations and a heavy emphasis on practical activities using live lab equipment and a simulation package. Further details and pricing information are available.

This is the first module of four modules in CCNA.

1. Networking Fundamentals 2. LAN Switching and Wireless 3. Routing Protocols and Concepts 4. Accessing the WAN

This course is part of the Scientific Computing series.

This course explains how to construct and use regular expressions in Python (using the re module). It does not discuss how to construct complex regular expressions, nor does it cover regular expressions themselves in much detail, rather it focuses on how to use regular expressions in Python.

For a detailed discussion of regular expressions see the "Pattern Matching Using Regular Expressions" course.

A course in basic C programming intended for beginners to programming only. The aim of the course is to get everyone to the stage of being able to write small utility programs in C for carrying out simple calculations and data manipulation.

This beginners course equips you with the skills to implement a relational database design entity relationship diagram (ERD) into a MySQL database.

This self-paced practical course covers the most commonly used features of Microsoft Word 2007. It is not suitable for experienced users of other versions of Word wanting to find out about the new features in Word 2007. Those needing basic Windows training may also attend this course and do relevant exercises under supervision.

This is a practical-based course for people new to writing Web pages. Only the basics of HTML (hypertext markup language) will be covered, but there are other courses for those wishing to extend their knowledge. By the end of the course participants will have created three personal linked web pages.
