Dear NERSC users,

Newton, the Mathematics Server will be decommissioned on
September 30, 2005. Users are responsible for their files/data
that reside on Newton. Please copy your files to other systems
e.g. DaVinci,  Jacquard,  HPSS or your home system ASAP.
WHEN NEWTON IS DECOMMISSIONED, ALL FILES  REMAINING
ON THE SYSTEM WILL BE LOST.

Please note the Math applications that are available on Newton,
viz., MATHEMATICA and MATLAB have already been installed
on the new Linux Networx supercomputer,  Jacquard, and the
shared-memory computer,  DaVinci.  NERSC will  also soon
make MAPLE software available on DaVinci  and  Jacquard.

Users are encouraged to migrate to DaVinci and/or Jacquard.
DaVinci is intended to be the primary analytics  platform at
NERSC. It has 192 GB of shared memory,  and no interactive
limits.

For more information on DaVinci and Jacquard please see:

Regards,
