An Introduction to Linux |
| Abstract |
Tux, the Linux penguin. Source: Wikipedia Linux is a powerful operating system that includes a multitude of tools for programmers and system administrators. It is a robust, stable, and flexible operating system that can be tailored to run on a variety of hardware from phones to supercomputers. Linux is widely used in academic and scientific communities because it is so versatile and includes over 40 years of scientific tools development. This tutorial is intended for the beginning Linux user and should help you get acquainted with some basic principles of the Linux operating system. There is also a wealth of free information about Linux available online and in several books so this will not be a comprehensive tutorial, but rather a starting point to help you begin using Linux comfortably. This roadmap focuses on features that are relevant to the scientific communities utilizing Linux-based ACCESS resources. However, it may also be useful to other beginning Linux or Unix users in the academic or scientific communities and beyond. |
