PyTorch Fully Sharded Data Parallel (FSDP) is used to speed-up model training time by parallelizing training data as well as sharding model parameters, optimizer states, and gradients across multiple pytorch instances.
Pitzer
CUDA Quantum is a platform for developing quantum-classical applications that leverages NVIDIA's CUDA technology. This platform provides a framework to create and execute quantum algorithms on quantum processors while integrating with classical computing resources. It is designed to accelerate quantum computing tasks and support hybrid quantum-classical workflows, making it an essential tool for researchers and developers in the field of quantum computing.

rclone is a tool that can be used to upload and download files to a cloud storage (like Microsoft OneDrive) from the command line. It's shipped as a standalone binary, but requires some user configuration before using. In this page, we will provide instructions on how to use rclone to upload data from Google Drive. For instructions with other cloud storage, check rclone Online documentation.
Some projects may wish to have a common account to allow for different privileges than their regular user accounts. These are called community accounts, in that they are shared among multiple users, belong to a project, and may be able to submit jobs. Community accounts are accessed using the sudo command.
A community sudo account has the following characteristics:
