Requirements
The practical sessions for all modules will involve using a UNIX interactive system. Participants of any module must know basic UNIX commands, including how to use an editor (e.g. vi, etc.). Participants of COM INTRO, COM GRIB, COM MAG and COM HPCF are also expected to know ANSI Fortran 77 or 90.
Students can attend any or all of these modules.
Each module will consist of some lectures and some practical sessions. All the lectures will be given in English. A workbook will be provided for each module, together with basic manuals and other relevant documentation as required.
