Computational Methods Hub
Research computing and data science provides essential tools, methods, and principles that underpin research in all areas of STEMM. There is a large variation in course provision in undergraduate programs and many postgraduate students embark on their projects without the necessary computing skills.
The Computational Methods Hub was created to facilitate scientific computing and data science education for students from Imperial CDTs via a wide array of courses and services:
- Scientific computing and data science courses
- Office hours or personal support on demand
- High Performance Computing support
- Coordination of student-led research computing skills-building activities across CDTs
- Specialist classes from external instructors
- Bespoke classes
- 2-day Software Carpentry workshops

Welcome to the new CDT students! This term, CM Hub will train students from StatML, ACM, Nuclear Energy Futures and Next Generation Synthesis. We are also looking forward to working with the students from Chemical Biology in the spring.
10 September, 2019
We are happy to announce the fifth Research Computing Summer School. This year's topic is machine learning.
15 January, 2019
We would like to announce a staff change. Dr Prasun Ray has moved onto other exciting projects. We were happy to engage Dr Adam Townsend from the Department of Mathematics in his place. During the spring semester, we will also have an invaluable help from Krishnakumar Gopalakrishnan who just finised his degree in Mechanical Engineering.
Good luck and many thanks to Prasun and welcome to Adam and Krishna!

The Firedrake team will be running introductory Firedrake training at Imperial on 12 January.
Firedrake (firedrakeproject.org) is a system which automates the numerical solution of partial differential equations using the finite element method. Firedrake users write high level mathematical code for the PDEs they wish to solve, and high performance parallel implementations are automatically generated at runtime. Firedrake makes it vastly easier to create high performance simulations, and even automates the creation of an adjoint simulation. Users at Imperial and around the world employ Firedrake for a wide range of forward and inverse simulation challenges.
The Firedrake team will be offering a half-day hands-on Firedrake tutorial at Imperial on 12 January 2018. If you're considering using Firedrake or are just curious about it, you're welcome to come and participate. The tutorial is free but registration is required. For more information and to sign up, go to: http://www.firedrakeproject.org/tutorial_jan_18.html

Details for our new Data analysis with Python course have been announced. See the course description here.

Pain Relief for Scientific Computing
CM Hub and students from CDTs in Fluid Dynamics across Scales, Mathematics of Planet Earth, Theory and Simulation of Materials and High Performance Embedded Distributed Systems are inviting everyone to a scientific computing fair. Pain Relief for Scientific Computing is held on October 11th and it will feature exhibits and short talks on useful practices essential for scientific computing novices.
SCIENTIFIC COMPUTING support Network
We are also launching a support network for students and scientists. The Network will connect those new to computing (or a particular problem) with their more experienced counterparts in order to improve and accelerate individual learning experiences. Contact us if you need help with selecting the right tool, deciding how to tackle a complex problem or if you just need a sounding board.

NGCM Summer Academy organised by the EPSRC CDT in Next Generation Computational Modelling at the University of Southampton, June 26 - 30, 2017.
The NGCM Summer Academy is a one-week event bringing together PhD students from across the UK who work on computer simulation of science and engineering problems, and want to extend their training through the workshops available at the Summer Academy. The training is delivered by world-leading experts and key developers of the relevant software tools, and includes 2-day courses on IPython and Jupyter Notebook, VTK and MayaVi, GPU programming using CUDA, Pandas Python library for data handling, Scikit learn, and Programming the Intel Knights Landing.
Prior to the main programme outlined above, we offer three courses aimed at those just starting with computational work. These courses provide a basic or intermediate introduction to Python, version control and testing and can be attended separately as a one-day event. In parallel, there will be a course on Scientific Programming run by a fellow of the Software Sustainability Institute, Alice Harpole.
Registration is now open.

People
The CM Hub staff.
CM Hub alumni: Prasun Ray (Imperial College, Mathematics) and Krishnakumar Gopalakrishnan (UCL, Centre for Computational Science), Adam Townsend (University of Durham, Mathematical Sciences).
Why Computational Methods Hub
We recognize that PhD students come from various backgrounds and have received a varied IT education. To promote excellence in graduate programs at the College, we offer computational method courses for all PhD students from the CDTs.
If you need to learn the basis of command line or shell scripting or if you need to start programming, we will provide a thorough introduction to the topic and get you started. For the more advanced users, we teach parallel methods, parallel programming, good programming practice and more.
The Hub is also closely affiliated with the high performance computing resource at the College and we can provide an introduction and advise on using the clusters. Check out our course list and/or contact us with questions.
Computational science requirements
A survey of computational science skill requirements was conducted in CDTs and the summary is presented below.
The required topic range from the basic command line, through programming skills to advanced topics in numerical methods and algorithms. To reflect the varied needs, we have started to develop short courses that provide a solid introduction to individual topics, followed by guided exercises.
Our vision
Our long term vision is to provide courses organized into three logical levels, each building on the previous one.
Research Computing Service at Imperial - our intitutinal resource for research computing, HPC and data storage
ARCHER - the UK national supercomputing service offers free training courses on an array of topics.
