DESCRIPTION: Computation is an important aspect of most scientific researc
 h these days. I will describe what is generally meant by "high performance
 " computing\, and highlight different "workloads"\, such as simulation\, d
 ata processing and machine learning. I will also talk about locally availa
 ble systems\, national and international infrastructure.\nFinally\, I will
  mention how to use the machines\, whether that is with your own code\, or
  using a well-known package\, such as ASPECT or SPECFEM3D. I am also keen 
 to hear what people are interested in doing\, and happy to help them get s
 tarted.
