We decided to have more time for packages (either taken from first hour or continuing after 11. -What does this mean: “Loading Analysis SW? Envs?””: moot session, fill with more IDEs?
Batch jobs are really supposed to be on this day, but when? after IDEs or directly?
Exact timings

Day 4
Are we fine with 2 x 50m parallelism and 3.5 x 50m of ML? PO: yes, from my side
GPU introduction
Exact timings
Any comments?
PO: For the Parallelism session, I want to change the questions in the evaluation:
“I can start a script that uses parallel code” -> “I know the basics of the different parallelization tools in Python”
“I can measure the effect of using more nodes for parallel code” -> “I know how a simple for loop can be parallelized with Multiprocessing and how it can run on multiple cores”
