NOTS Computing for Matching Entrepreneurs to VCs

In progress. Building documentation from: https://docs.rice.edu/confluence/display/CD/Getting+Started+on+NOTS

Synopsis

Summer 2018. We try to use NOTS (Night Owls Time-Sharing Service), a computing cluster of Rice's CRC (Center for Research Computing) to run the Matlab code for Matching Entrepreneurs to VCs. This is a documentation on how to log onto and use NOTS. Currently only Wei and Ed have access to NOTS.

Getting Started

SSH to NOTS with your net id. For example, from a Linux machine:

ssh -Y (username)@nots.rice.edu

Currently, Matlab 2015a is installed on NOTS. To check what software is available, type

module spider

To load a software such as Matlab 2015a, type

module load MATLAB/2015a

To load this module by default at login,

module save

To unload all the modules,

module purge
