Item A:

Partial salary support  is requested for five  
instructors who will provide the two week training workshop.
( \$ 10,000 + 27\% fringe benefits = \$ 12,700 ).

%Partial summer support
%( \$ 2000 ) is requested for a graduate student 
% who will 
%provide help 
%with logistic problems and general orientation on campus
%to the REU participants.

\leftline{\underline{{\bf 
Item F:
}}}

1. Stipends: A stipend of \$ 2500 per participant is requested
(2500 x 8)=\$ 20,000.




2. Travel: For the eight participants,(250 x 8) = \$ 2000
 of travel support is requested.
This will be used on an assesed 
need-basis, especially for the participants who travel 
to Syracuse on a pre selection visit 
or who may be joining the  REU program
from locations far from Syracuse. 



3. Meals: we request support of (1000 x 8 = \$ 8000 )  /year
to cover the cost of meals 
for eight summer participants for up to ten weeks.

\leftline{\underline{{\bf 
Item G: Other direct costs
}}}

1. Materials and supplies: \$ 1000 are requested  for the purchase of
materials and supplies.



Total support requested from NSF: \$ 43,700.

Cost Sharing of REU project by Syracuse University
                        }}
\end{center}




1. The maximal overhead rate for an REU grant is 25.0\%.
Syracuse University has agreed to waive this cost (0.25 x 43,700)
= \$ 10,925
in support of the REU project.


2. Syracuse University will contribute \$ 5000 /year
to cover the cost of lodging 
of eight summer participants for up to ten weeks.



3. Normal academic computing needs of each of the eight participants will
be met with no cost to NSF.
Syracuse University does not put 
any cost limits on academic use
by students of the academic computing systems.
The estimated average
computing cost per year is estimated to be  (250 x 8) = \$ 2000.

4. Computing resources on the Connection  
Machine (CM2) and other supercomputers  
at the North East Parallel Architecture Center (NPAC).
All participants will get  accounts on the NPAC  
facilities and will use 
them 
with no cost to NSF. 
We expect that some of the proposed projects will need extensive
computation on the CM2, of about 50 hours, 
at the cost of \$ 400  for CM2 hour. The total value is thus \$ 20,000.
    


5. Syracuse University will  provide summer support
( \$ 3000 ) towards the support of a graduate student 
 who will 
provide help 
with logistic problems and general orientation on campus.
His/her job will be complementary to that of the
faculty supervisors.  
The graduate student will also
help  the participants in the use of technical  tools such as 
word processors and computer graphics.        
 

6. Syracuse University will provide 
four fellowships (4 x 2500) = \$ 10,000.
Three fellowships will be supported by the GE award (targeted at
women and minority groups) and the other one by the SU Fredrickson Fellowship.

7. Indirect costs of post participation activities 
during the academic year following participation.
Costs such as additional computation resources, and office
supplies will be covered by Syracuse University at no cost to NSF.
Post participation activities will be pursued as a part of
the Honors Program at SU.

Total cost - sharing
contribution by Syracuse University for 1992: \$ 50,925.
