<Preliminary announcement> The Centre for Large Scale Computation is pleased to announce that the Cray Satellite Station software test is about to begin. This product provides UNIX systems connected to the Cray's front end VAX via TCP/IP with capabilities similar to those enjoyed by DECneted VMS systems. These include job submission, job status reporting and dataset fetch and dispose. The use of 'ftp' and 'rlogin' to the attached VAX/VMS system will no longer be required. Several UNIX sites have volunteered to participate in this test and more would be welcome. In order to inform users about the Satellite software the CLSC invites all potential users of the product as well as managers of each of the remote systems which are or might run it to a meeting at which the product's features will be discussed and, if possible, demonstrated. The intent of the meeting is to promote the software and solicit comments about its features, capabilities and maintanence. Time: <tba - tentatively afternoon> Date: <tba - tentatively Wednesday> Location: Room <tba>, McLennan Laboratory 60 St. George Street University of Toronto
