acme-demo

Demo and Examples showing how to use ACME.

Setup

Slidedeck

The slides were built with Quarto version 1.2.313. To make the Quarto VS Code extension (and Quarto's web server) pick up the HTML build, first render the project

quarto render

Then generate a generic index.html by creating a symlink to the produced acme-demo.html:

ln -s acme-demo.html index.html

Demo Code

The Jupyter notebook connectome-demo.ipynb is intended as "supplementary material" for the slidedeck: it illustrates how to concurrently compute functional connectomes across a subject cohort.

The second thematic area covered by the included demo codes are Newton Fractals. The notebook fractal-intro.ipynb provides a short introduction to this topic (not focused on parallelization), the fractal-demo.ipynb notebook illustrates how to compute Newton fractals in parallel.

Usage

Publish Slidedeck

First, set embed-resources: false (many hosters find ~100MB html files suspicious...), then

quarto render acme-demo.qmd --output-dir demo23

Then copy the entire contents of demo23 to the desired webspace and check the result in a browser.

Run Demos

Due to its memory requirements, the connectome-demo.ipynb notebook is best run on a multi-node computing cluster. Conversely, fractal-demo.ipynb is mainly CPU-intensive and can therefore be run on a (capable) multi-core machine as well.

Both topics are stand-alone demos and can be analyzed independently. The Jupyter notebooks are intended as exemplary illustrations, while the Python modules provide the computational backbone for the notebooks.
