Betreff: [ZKI] Platforms at HLRS, Course, March 29-30 at HLRS, Call for Participation

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,

mit den neuen Hardware-Installationen stehen nun am HLRS mehrere 
Multi-Teraflop-Plattformen zur Verfuegung:
 
 - NEC Nehalem Cluster (62 TFlop/s, 5600 cores) 
 - IBM bwGrid Cluster (46 TFlop/s) 
 - NEC SX-9 (19 TFlop/s, 192 cores) 
 - Cray XT5m (8.5 TFlop/s, 892 cores) 

Ich waere Ihnen sehr dankbar, wenn Sie die Kursankuendigung an  
eventuell interessierte Mitarbeiter und Kollegen weiterleiten wuerden.  

Mit freundlichen Gruessen
Ihr Rolf Rabenseifner
