Joining the Mail List

The Scientific Computing Division's Performance Engineering and Computational Methods group has established a mail list for people interested in new results and analysis on high-performance systems. Updates to our performance database occur when new scaling studies are carried out on larger numbers of processors, new compilers are released, operating systems are patched or upgraded, new software or libraries are installed, or new algorithms are tested. Many of these studies include cross-discipline and/or cross-architecture comparisons. While not every update may directly concern you, many advances are general in nature and have broad applicability.

If you join the list, you will receive an email message whenever new graphs or information is added or updated in the NCSA performance tuning set of pages starting from www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/SCD/Perf/Tuning/.

Please sign up for our new mail list following the instructions below.

  1. Open a new message in your electronic mail system
  2. Enter "majordomo@ncsa.uiuc.edu" in the To field (but do not include the quotation marks)
  3. Leave the subject line blank
  4. On the first line of the text area, enter "subscribe ncsa_performance" (but do not include the quotation marks)
  5. send the mail
It's that easy! You will receive a confirmation email that will also include information about how you can leave the list in the future.

Thanks for your interest and please contact project lead Mark Straka if you would like to contribute your information.
