DESCRIPTION:\n\nLocation: Ankara\, Türkiye (Online)\n\nDate: 31/03/2026\
 n\nTime: 10:00-14:30 (Istanbul)\n\nTeaching Language: Turkish\n\nOrganiz
 ing Institution: TÜBİTAK\n\nLevel: Intermediate\n\nFormat: Webinar\n\nI
 ndustrial domains: All\n\nCourse description:\n\nThis one-day online cour
 se provides a practical introduction to container technologies tailored fo
 r High-Performance Computing (HPC) environments. Participants will learn h
 ow to effectively run\, customize\, and manage containerized applications 
 using HPC-compatible tools such as Apptainer. The course includes live dem
 onstrations conducted on the TRUBA HPC infrastructure as a representative 
 production environment.\n\nLearning Outcomes:\n\n            
 •           Understand the role of containers in HPC environme
 nts\n\n            •           Distinguish between 
 Docker and HPC-oriented container solutions\n\n            •
            Run and manage containerized workloads on HPC systems
 \n\n            •           Integrate containers wi
 th GPU resources and job schedulers\n\n            •    
        Apply debugging and lifecycle management techniques\n\nAgenda
