SUMMARY:Container Computing for HPC and Scientific Workflows
DESCRIPTION:Richard Shane Canon and Rollin C. Thomas (Lawrence Berkeley Na
 tional Laboratory)\n\nContainer computing has rapidly gained adoption in H
 PC and is revolutionizing the way applications are developed and delivered
 . It offers opportunities that never existed before for significantly impr
 oving efficiency of scientific workflows and easily moving these workflows
  from the laptop to the supercomputer. Tools like Docker and Shifter enabl
 e a new paradigm for scientific and technical computing. However, to fully
  unlock its potential, users and administrators need to understand how to 
 utilize these new approaches. \n\nThis tutorial will introduce attendees t
 o the basics of creating container images, explain best practices, and cov
 er more advanced topics such as creating images to be run on HPC platforms
  using Shifter. The tutorial will also explain how research scientists can
  utilize container-based computing to accelerate their research and how th
 ese tools can boost the impact of their research by enabling better reprod
 ucibility and sharing of their scientific process without compromising sec
 urity. This is an extension of the highly successful tutorial presented at
  SC17 that was attended by more than 100 people. The SC17 tutorial was ver
 y highly rated with 2.8 / 3 stars for “would recommend” and 4.1 / 5 stars 
 for overall quality.\n\nTag: Reproducibility, Scientific Workflows, System
