research and education

"SURAgrid is a highly collaborative regional grid initiative with 30 
university participants.
The vision for SURAgrid is to meet diverse users' needs through access 
to a rich set of
distributed capabilities, including user-contributed resources 
(computational and other),
corporate partnerships, project-specific environments, HPC access, and 
gateways to national
cyberinfrastructure (CI) such as the Teragrid."

This talk will begin at 3:30 pm in CASCI in Bldg. 74 in the first floor 
lab area.
It will also be broadcast over the Access Grid in the RIT Venue under 
the ANL Venue Server.

***If you are interested in meeting and speaking with Mary Fran and Gary 
before their talk, please
***let me know if you would like to join us for lunch (TBA) or meet 
sometime before 3:30pm.

Hope to see you there,
