I am on the search committee to find a new Manager of Computing
Services at Argonne.  We expect to acquire an entry-level supercomputer

months and particularly seek an individual who is knowledgeable in
large scale scientific and engineering computing.  This type of
individual may be known to members of this bulletin board.
