Silicon Graphics Computer Systems in conjunction with the Ontario
Centre for Large Scale Computation will make two presentations/
demonstrations on the topic of

           "Application of High Performance Graphics
                in a Supercomputing Environment"
 
    Date: Friday, January 15, 1988

    Location: Room 182, Koffler Student Services Centre,
              214 College St., University of Toronto.
 
    Session 1: 10:00 am - 11:00 am  Formal Presentation
               11:00 am - 12:00 pm  Discussions & Questions

               3:00 pm -  4:00 pm  Discussions & Questions
 
The speaker, Dr. Marc Ondrechen, formerly with the University of
Minnesota Supercomputing Institute, has had extensive experience in
the application of high performance graphics in supercomputing. His
talk will consist of discussions of real world research problems in
the areas of astrophysics, chemical engineering, astronomy, etc. which
have been addressed using this technology along with demonstrations of
the results of some of these applications shown on the new IRIS 4D/70
Superworkstation from Silicon Graphics.

> ... shown on the new IRIS 4D/70 Superworkstation from Silicon Graphics.

Although I was out of town and didn't make the demo, one note that may be
of interest:  there is a 4D/60T (the 4D/70's immediate predecessor, about
six months old) on campus, in Zoology.  Unfortunately we are not on the
campus net yet, so its usefulness to supercomputer users may be limited
just now.
