Program Notes
Special Interest Group (SIG) Meetings
The Special Interest Groups (SIGs) hold
interactive sessions that are open to all interested CUG attendees. A
separate interactive session will be held again this year for each of the four
standing groups: Monday morning's SIG will cover the Cray XD1 and X1/X1E Legacy Systems, Monday evening's SIG will be Applications and Programming Environment, Tuesday's will be for Systems Support, and Wednesday's session will be for User Support. These
meetings provide a forum to become acquainted with people from other CUG
sites who share your interests, to discuss the future direction of the SIG
and other important issues, and to hear talks of special interest. Liaisons
from Cray, Inc. will be available for each SIG to help address questions and
to foster communications between the SIG and Cray. You are encouraged to
attend any of these open meetings.
Program Suggestions
The Program Committee needs your ideas! We
encourage you to share your suggestions of how to improve the conference with
the CUG Vice-President, CUG Directors, and/or any of the SIG Chairs. The CUG
Conference Program is the net result of the combined efforts of all
interested CUG participants. You can make a unique contribution to the next
CUG conference with your suggestions. Help establish the future direction of CUG
and let us know how to help you make the most of your Cray system!
Conference Evaluation and Cray Inc. Service Survey
The CUG 2008 Evaluation and the Cray, Inc.
Service Survey will be available online starting Wednesday, May 7 at 8:00 AM
until Thursday, May 9 at 5:00 PM. Please go to www.cug.org/4-organization/eval_survey/ and take time to complete them both. Once you've completed them, please stop by the CUG office. We have a small gift for you
as a reward.
Cell Phone and Pager Policy
Please turn off your cell phone and/or pager
during conference sessions. There will be ample time to check your messages
outside of the conference sessions. Please
extend this courtesy to our presenters.
Changes to the Program
We always anticipate there will be some changes
to the Program schedule. Check the Program Schedule Board on site at the conference
each day for schedule changes. Changes should be announced at the first morning session as well.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation.
