[comp.parallel] Supercomputing'88 proc.

eugene@orville.nas.nasa.gov (Eugene Miya) (11/28/88)

Here is the last major conference I will be posting proceedings.
There is one more major parallel computing conference I am aware of
for the year (the Dec. performance measurement conference in Japan
which I was invited to, but don't have the travel funds for).

An added note will follow next week on the status of the complete bib,
authorized sites should try FTP next weekend to "you know where."
I should be stacking firewood by then.

--eugene miya

Added P.S. my videotapes of Ledbetter and the Future Technologies
session have been made "official" conference records as well as my
walkthrus of the vendor and research exhibits, poster session, and
various "blackmail" pieces.  Next year's conference might have
professional taping of these things.

Again annotations, corrections, etc. to me.

%h $Revision$ $Date$
%# A memorable conference with Seymour Cray's once in a decade
speech "What's New About Gallium Arsenide?" not in the proceedings.
Included photos of the Cray-3 housing and modules.

%X A disappointing paper.  Could have been much better.  Does not
adequately cover the issue of tools and operating systems.  Okay if you
are just dealing with Fortran and card images.  Dusty decks.  Points
a finger against compilers without mentioning algorithms.
