Analysis of Aspects of JISC New Technologies Program -- December 96

Given by Geoffrey C. Fox at Ohio supercomputer Center workshop on January 24 1997. Foils prepared January 26 1997

JISC = Part of UK Government supporting "Internet" (JANET) and related Infrastructure (not research) programs
HE = Higher Education, NTI = New Technologies Initiative
JISC NTI Program ran from mid 93 to mid 96 and included 8 HPCTE (High Performance Computing Training and Education) Programs and 6 cluster deployment projects (major follow up project in latter area)
I reviewed Program for a week in December 96
Lessons are generally applicable
Quite a lot of excellent HPCC Course Material Produced although not presented terribly well on the Web
