Subject: SDSU Undergrad Curriculum in Supercomputing

An interdisciplinary, undergraduate course has been
developed at San Diego State University (SDSU) to teach
the fundamentals of architecture and software tools that
promote effective use of the Cray Y-MP 8/864 Supercomputer
at the San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC). This work
was supported by the NSF Division of Advanced Scientific
Computing. The only prerequisite for the course is a good
programming background in Fortran or C.

A residential, faculty workshop will be presented July 13-17,
1992 at SDSC (on the campus of UCSD La Jolla) to provide
access to the Cray and promote discussions on undergraduate
curricula in Advanced Scientific Computing. Faculty from
primarily undergraduate institutions are encouraged to contact:

Subject: Scalable High Performance Computing Conference

SHPCC '92 Call for Papers
Scalable High Performance Computing Conference
April 26-29, 1992, Williamsburg Hilton, Williamsburg, VA.

Sponsored by IEEE

The Scalable High Performance Computing Conference (SHPCC) is the
successor to the Distributed Memory Computing Conference series. We
define a scalable high performance architecture as an architecture that
is likely to be capable of delivering a teraflop sustained performance
in the relatively near future. SHPCC will focus on software being
developed to make it possible to effectively exploit the coming generations
of these architectures and on applications that require teraflop
computational rates.

We invite papers from researchers who are developing or evaluating
software tools such as compilers, programming environments, and debuggers
along with tools to monitor and tune performance. Papers are also
solicited from those who have developed and analyzed multiprocessor
applications codes. We plan to place particular emphasis on two
general application areas. The first is that of computational
fluid dynamics and its uses in problems that arise in the design of
aircraft, spacecraft and automobiles. The second application area
consists of molecular dynamics and its uses in the pharmaceutical
and chemical industries.

The conference will begin with one day of tutorials. The two and one
half day technical program that follows will consist of four invited talks,
two parallel tracts of half hour talks, and a small poster session.
We invite researchers to submit a four page extended abstract in hard
copy, LaTeX, or Troff to the address below by November 25, 1991.
The abstracts will be carefully reviewed by the program committee and
the authors will be notified by early January, 1992. The proceedings
will be published by IEEE and will be available at the time of the
conference. Final papers will be due approximately, March 1, 1992.

NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION
Division of Advanced Scientific Computing
Washington, DC 20550

This is to bring to your attention opportunities for support of Postdoctoral
Research Associateships in Computational Science and Engineering (CS&E) and
experimental research supported by the New Technologies Program in the Division
of Advanced Scientific Computing (DASC) and the Office of Cross Disciplinary
Activities (CDA) in NSF's Computer and Information Science and Engineering
(CISE) Directorate, in cooperation with other NSF Computational Science and
Engineering (CS&E) disciplines. The objective of the associateship awards is to
increase expertise in the development of innovative methods and software for
applying high performance computers in solving large scale CS&E problems and in
experimental research supported by CISE as part of NSF's High Performance
Computing and Communications (HPCC) activities.

These awards provide opportunities for recent Ph. D.s to broaden their
knowledge and experience and to prepare them for significant research careers
on the frontiers of contemporary computational science and engineering and
experimental computer science. It is assumed that Research Associates will
conduct their research at academic research institutions or other centers or
institutions which provide access to high performance and emerging parallel
computing systems and concentrate on associated research programs.

Associateship awards will be based on proposals submitted by a sponsoring
institution. The principal investigator will serve as an unreimbursed
scientific advisor for the research associate. Research associates may be
listed as co-principal investigators. Each proposal must include a research
and training plan for the proposed research associate in an activity of
computational science and engineering in any of the fields supported by DASC,
other NSF CS&E programs or experimental research in one of the CISE research
divisions. To be eligible for this support, individuals must; (1) be eligible
to be appointed as a research associate or research assistant professor in the
host institution which has submitted the proposal, (2) fulfill the requirements
for the doctoral degree in computational science and engineering, computer
science or a closely related discipline by September 30, 1992.

Award Amounts, Stipends and Research Expense Allowances
Awards will range from $36,000-$44,000 for a 24 month period. The award will
include $32,000-$40,000 to support the Research Associate (to be matched
equally by the sponsoring institution). There will also be an allowance of
$4,000 to the sponsoring institution, in lieu of indirect costs, as partial
reimbursement for expenses incurred in support of the research. The annual
award to the research associate will be composed of two parts; an annual
stipend (salary and benefits) that may range from $28,000-$36,000, and a $4,000
per year research expense allowance expendable at the Associate's discretion
for travel, publication expenses, and other research-related costs. There is no
allowance for dependents. The effective date of the award cannot be later than
January 1993.

Matching Funds
Matching funds for 24 months must range from $32,000-$40,000. As the CS&E and
experimental research awards are intended to cover all NSF disciplinary areas,
matching funds may come from grants from other NSF programs, other agencies
programs or from other institutional resources. Matching fund arrangements are
the responsibility of the submitting institution and must be detailed in the
budget request.

Evaluation and Selection of Associates
Proposals will be reviewed by panel in accordance with established Foundation
procedures and the general criteria described in the brochure, Grants for
Research and Education in Science and Engineering (GRESE) NSF 90-77.
Single copies of the GRESE brochure are available at no cost from the NSF Forms
and Publication Unit, phone (202) 357-7668, or via e-mail (Bitnet:pubs@nsf or
Internet:pubs@note.nsf.gov).

Application Procedures and Proposal Materials
To be eligible for consideration, a proposal must contain forms which can be
found in the GRESE brochure.
All application materials must be received by January 16, 1992. Send completed
proposals with supporting application materials to: New Technologies Research
Associateships, NSF 91-127, Division of Advanced Scientific Computing, Room
417, National Science Foundation, Washington, D.C, 20550. Award announcements
are planned for April, 1992. In FY1991 DASC made 17 such post-doc awards. In
FY1992, it is anticipated that DASC will make approximately 20 awards and CDA
approximately 10 awards.
