For the past several months, the NSF Network Service Center has been in
the process of compiling and publishing (on-line) a guide to various
resources available on the Internet. We are currently trying to expand
selected sections of the guide.
In this note I'd like to enlist people's help locating managers of
computer centers which offer special computing facilities (e.g. supercomputers,
parallel processors, etc.) to Internet users and are not currently listed in
the guide. The guide currently includes information on the following
centers:
Air Force Supercomputer Center at Kirtland AFB ........ 1.1
Center for Theory and Simulation in Science and Engineering
(Cornell National Supercomputer Facility) ........... 1.2
John von Neumann National Supercomputer Center ........ 1.3
National Center for Atmospheric Research .............. 1.4
National Center for Supercomputing Applications ....... 1.5
National Magnetic Fusion Energy Computer Center ....... 1.6
Northeast Parallel Architectures Center ............... 1.7
Ohio Supercomputer Center ............................. 1.8
Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center ...................... 1.9
San Diego Supercomputer Center ........................ 1.10
US Army Ballistic Research Laboratory ................. 1.11
University of California at Berkeley .................. 1.12
SuperComputing Services, The University of Calgary .... 1.13
Center for Experimental Research in Parallel Algorithms,
Software and Systems (CERPASS) ...................... 1.14
If you are aware of a specialized computing facility which is not
listed here, please either tell us (at resource-guide@nnsc.nsf.net)
who to contact at that site, or forward this note to someone at the
site.
Thanks!
Craig Partridge
Director, NNSC Technical Services
