>> About HPCXXL:
>> HPCXXL is a user group for sites which have large supercomputing and storage 
>> installations. Because of the history of HPCXXL, the focus of the group is 
>> on large-scale scientific/technical computing using IBM or Lenovo hardware 
>> and software, but other vendor hardware and software is also welcome. Some 
>> of the areas we cover are: Applications, Code Development Tools, 
>> Communications, Networking, Parallel I/O, Resource Management, System 
>> Administration, and Training. We address topics across a wide range of 
>> issues that are important to sustained petascale scientific/technical 
>> computing on scaleable parallel machines. Some of the benefits of joining 
>> the group include knowledge sharing across members, NDA content availability 
>> from vendors, and access to vendor developers and support staff.
>> The HPCXXL user group is a self-organized and self-supporting group. Members 
>> and affiliates are expected to participate actively in the HPCXXL meetings 
>> and activities and to cover their own costs for participating. HPCXXL 
>> meetings are open only to members and affiliates of the HPCXXL. HPCXXL 
>> member institutions must have an appropriate non-disclosure agreement in 
>> place with IBM and Lenovo, since at times both vendors disclose and discuss 
>> information of a confidential nature with the group.
>> To join HPCXXL, a new organization needs to be sponsored by a current HPCXXL 
>> member or by the prospective member themselves. This process is 
>> straightforward and can be completed over email or in person when a 
>> representative attends their first meeting. If you are interested in 
>> learning more, please contact [email protected]
