[SIAM-SC] Fernbach Award

[Esmond G. Ng]

Dear Colleague:

On behalf of the IEEE Computer Society and SC07, I invite you to nominate
outstanding candidates in the field of supercomputing for the Sidney
Fernbach Award. This award recognizes innovative uses of high performance
computing in problem solving. It was established in 1992 in memory of
Sidney Fernbach, one of the pioneers in the development and application of
high performance computers for the solution of large computational
problems. A certificate and $2,000 are awarded for innovative approaches
and outstanding contributions in the application of high performance
computers.

The deadline for nominations is 30 JUNE 2007 (one month earlier than in
previous years). The nomination form, plus the required endorsements by
several other persons in the field, must be submitted to the IEEE Computer
Society web site ( www.computer.org/awards). Additional information can be
found at http://sc07.supercomputing.org under the Technical Program tab;
also see the flyer (
http://sc07.supercomputing.org/html/crayfernbachawards.pdf). Should you
have any questions, feel free to contact me via email at
sfashby at llnl.gov. We look forward to receiving your nominations.

Sincerely yours,

Steven Ashby
IEEE Computer Society Fernbach Award Chair
