	TALC has a Jupyterhub server which runs a Jupyter server on one of the TALC compute nodes and provides all the necessary encryption and plumbing to deliver the notebook to your computer. To access this service you must have a TALC account. Point your browser at http://talc.ucalgary.ca and login with your usual UC account. As of this writing, the job that runs the jupyter notebook is 1 cpu and 10GiB of memory on a cpu16 node.

 ===Obtaining an account===
 TALC account requests are expected to be submitted by the course instructor rather than from individual students. You must have a University of Calgary IT account in order to use TALC. If you do not have a University of IT account or email address, please register for one at https://itregport.ucalgary.ca/. In order to ensure TALC is provisioned in time for a course start date, the instructor should submit the initial list of @ucalgary.ca accounts needed for the course 2 weeks before the start date.

	* Software support for parallel processing using Message Passing Interface (MPI), OpenMP, etc. For example, MPI for parallel processing can distribute memory across multiple nodes, so that per-node memory requirements could be lower. Whereas OpenMP or single process serial code that is restricted to one node would require a higher memory node.		* Software support for parallel processing using Message Passing Interface (MPI), OpenMP, etc. For example, MPI for parallel processing can distribute memory across multiple nodes, so that per-node memory requirements could be lower.

	Since resources that are requested are reserved for your job, please request only as much CPU and memory as your job requires to avoid reducing the cluster efficiency. If you are unsure which partition to use or the specific resource requests that are appropriate for your jobs, ~~please~~ contact us at [mailto:support@hpc.ucalgary.ca support@hpc.ucalgary.ca] and we would be happy to work with you.
