Dear NERSC User, NERSC User Services Group plans to offer our User Training Lecture series in December of this year and spring of 2001. We are currently planning lectures at the beginning and intermediate level of depth, in such areas as Batch and Shell Scripting, Programming with the MPI Library, Programmimg with OpenMP, Code Optimization for the NERSC Platforms, and Performance Tuning and Monitoring Tools Available at NERSC. Announcements for these lectures will be forthcoming, as our planning solidifies. In addition, we'd welcome your suggestions: Is there a particular topic you'd like us cover in a short (60 to 120 minute) lecture, or a longer (2 to 5 hour) class? Please let us know by emailing your ideas to us at training_at_nersc_dot_gov. We generally present short lectures as conference telephone calls, with presentation materials available on the NERSC Web Server. Longer classes can be video-cast via the ESNet Video Conferencing Service; all ESNet and ESNET Partner sites have facilities for video-conference participation. We can also video-tape longer classes, and present the digitized video on our web server. Our class offerings are for your benefit, and we can adapt them to your needs. We'd be glad to hear from you on these matters. Tom DeBoni NERSC User Services Group User Training Manager
