The workshop closed IAP out in style with user contributions from across the Physics Department. In fact, in the series of subMIT workshops over the last years we note a steady increase in involvement, which has lead to a reduction of the more general sessions and an increase in the variety of presentations of applications which cover a wider range of research topics in the department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The popular morning tutorial session started with the general overview, where also the most important recent upgrade to subMIT&#8211;moving to Alma 9&#8211;was discussed. The upgrade is close, but not yet completed with details discussed in the <a href=\"https:\/\/indico.mit.edu\/event\/956\/contributions\/2681\/attachments\/995\/1631\/2024_02_02_alma9_upgrade.pdf\">talk<\/a> by Marianne Moore. The morning session also included the usual &#8220;Getting Started&#8221; tutorials by the subMIT project team followed by a SLURM\/HTCondor batch jobs tutorial for users ready to take their computation to the next level.&nbsp;Then subMIT users &nbsp;Deep Chatterjee (MKI: LIGO) and Blaise Delaney&nbsp;(LNS: LHCb)  kicked off the new addition to the workshop: user-given tutorials. &nbsp;Audience members followed these tutorials live at the session and later at their convenience on subMIT resources. &nbsp;This proved to be a popular and successful venture in facilitating knowledge-sharing between subMIT users. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An interesting new perspective on the general management of computing systems was delivered by Lindsey Gray from Fermilab in his <a href=\"https:\/\/indico.mit.edu\/event\/956\/contributions\/2842\/attachments\/998\/1637\/USCMSAF-EAF_LindseyGray_31012024.pdf\">presentation<\/a>, discussing the use of OpenShift, which builds upon <a href=\"https:\/\/kubernetes.io\/\">kubernetes<\/a> (K8s) to provide additional features. This might be a model the management of subMIT might be moving towards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thank you to all who participated, and see you next year!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thank you to all who made our most recent annual subMIT workshop a success!
