DeepSense has created a series of videos to help guide our users through some of the technical onboarding activities and help address some challenges they may face interfacing with the computing cluster throughout their project. As always, feel free to send us an email at (support@deepsense.ca) if you need any help.

Getting Started on a Mac

Here are a few introductory videos for users who want to connect with Mac OSX.

Installing VPN

In order to connect to the DeepSense platform you need to be on the Dalhousie Campus. If you need to connect remotely, you will need to use a VPN. One can use the Dalhousie VPN, but we find it can be slow. Here are the instructions for installing the DeepSense VPN.

We have confirmed this works for OSX 12 (Sierra) and newer. If you have an older operating system, it may not work.

How to Connect

Once you have the VPN installed, you can connect to the DeepSense platform. This short video will demonstrate.


Transferring Data

Once you can connect to the DeepSense platform, you'll probably want to transfer some data. This video will demonstrate how.


Getting Started using Windows

Here are a few introductory videos for users who want to connect using a Windows computer.

Installing VPN

In order to connect to the DeepSense platform you need to be on the Dalhousie Campus. If you need to connect remotely, you will need to use a VPN. One can use the Dalhousie VPN, but we find it can be slow. Here are the instructions for installing the DeepSense VPN.

We have verified this works with Windows 10. If you have an older operating system, it may not work.


How to Connect

Once you have the VPN installed, you can connect to the DeepSense platform. This short video will demonstrate.

Transferring Data

Once you can connect to the DeepSense platform, you'll probably want to transfer some data. This video will demonstrate how.


Introductory Videos

We have created a few introductory video tutorials for general HPC systems and linux.

Intro to HPC and DeepSense

Intro to Linux

Intro to LSF and Conductor with Spark

At DeepSense we use two different job schedulers. They are called LSF (Load Sharing Facility) and CwS (Conductor with Spark). You can also check out our pages on LSF and CWS.

Installing Software

Now that you know how to get started at DeepSense, and are familiar with our systems, you will want to start coding.

Installing Software

Here is a video that will demonstrate what software is available on Deepsense platform, and how to install them. You can also check out our pages on Available software and Installing Software.

Using Jupyter Notebook

Many of our users use Jupyter Notebooks to test their code. We have created this video that will demonstrate how to work with Jupyter Notebooks. You can also check out our page on Getting started with Jupyter Notebooks.
