Description
LOCATION: Spine Auditorium B/W Bldg 4 & 5 UNIX is arguably the most ubiquitous and important operating system in scientific research, used by scientists in all fields. These lectures provide a crash course introduction to UNIX, and will cover the basic tools, and underlying philosophy of the UNIX system. Attendees will leave with enough confidence to continue exploring UNIX on their own. The topics that will be covered include user and system information, process management, the shell, files, and filters. The Red Hat version of Linux will be used for examples, and the focus will be on the command-line interface and tools. This course was taught in WEP 2012.Hany Ramadan
