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 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/UNIX machine:
ssh -Y (username)@nots.rice.edu
To check what software is available, type
module spider
To see what modules are loaded,
module list
Currently, Matlab 2015a is installed on NOTS. To load a software such as Matlab 2015a,
module load MATLAB/2015a
To load this module by default at login,
module save
To unload all the modules,
module purge
Files Placement
Currently all the readjusted code for matching entrepreneurs to VCs are stored under /projects/fox/work
To transfer files
We have access to some of the directory on NOTS. In most cases, we will either work within our $HOME directory (4 GB storage quota):
/home/*username*
or within $PROJECT under the group of Prof. Jeremy Fox (100 GB storage quota):
/projects/fox
To transfer some files from your local Linux/UNIX machine to NOTS, use the following Secure Copy command on your local terminal:
scp some_file.dat *.incl *.txt (your_login_name)@nots.rice.edu:
This will put the files into your $HOME directory on NOTS
