     Argonne National Laboratory has set up a research facility for the
study of parallel computing.  It currently includes  an 8-processor 
Alliant FX/8, a 20-processor Encore Multimax, a 24-processor Sequent 
Balance 21000, and a 32-processor Intel iPSC hypercube.
Local projects utilizing the ACRF (Advanced Computing Research Facility) 
include parallel logic programming, parallel linear algebra, and the 
development of portable parallel programming methodologies.

    The ACRF is intended to be a user facility to support research in
parallel computing.  Those interested in using the facility in their
research should contact either 

	Jack Dongarra  or  Rusty Lusk
	Mathematics and Computer Science Division
	Argonne National Laboratory
        Argonne, IL 60439

   A class for those wishing to use the Argonne Advanced
Computing Research Facility will be held on August 11-13.  The class
will cover parallel programming on the Alliant, Encore, Sequent, and 
Intel.  This will be a hands-on class.  At its completion participants 
will have written and run a number of programs on each machine, 
and should be familiar with the ACRF environment.  The third day 
of the class will be devoted to consideration of each attendee's 
particular project.
   This class will emphasize C as the primary example
programming language.
   Those interested in the August class should contact

There will be no charge for this class, nor is any financial support
for attendees available.

(A class emphasizing Fortran will be held in September.)
