>Come hear leading innovators including Jon "Maddog" Hall, Dave Turek, and
>Dan Reed talk about the state of Linux, applications and performance. Find
>out about performance analysis tools that help make code run faster. Meet
>scientists and researchers and hear about their experiences running on
>Linux. Talk to experts about building high performing clusters.
>
>This user-oriented 5-day conference is aimed at sharing information on
>scientific computing techniques for Linux Supercluster users. The objective
>of this meeting is to help computational scientists and engineers develop
>applications to achieve maximum performance and scalability on Linux
>Supercluster systems.
>
>The Linux Supercluster Users Conference will be hosted in Albuquerque, New
>Mexico by the National Computational Science Alliance (NCSA), the Advanced
>Computing Technology Center at IBM Research, and the High Performance
>Computing Education and Research Center on September 11-15, 2000 at the
>Wyndham Hotel Albuquerque.
