Dear NERSC MPP users, Charging for NERSC's new IBM POWER 5 system, Bassi, will start this coming Monday, January 9. Based on benchmark and NERSC user application timings, the machine charge factor on Bassi is six. See: http://www.nersc.gov/nusers/resources/bassi/accounts.php Additional allocation for Bassi resources have been given to DOE, and will be distributed within the next month or so. If your repo balance is low, please have one of your project managers contact their DOE program manager. For contacts: http://www.nersc.gov/nusers/accounts/allocations//off-prog-mon.php Sincerely, -- Francesca Verdier email: fverdier_at_lbl_dot_gov Associate Manager, NERSC Services phone: 510-486-7193
