June 4, 2002 - NERSC User Training
in conjunction with the
NERSC Users' Group (NUG)
Spring 2002 Business Meeting
NERSC User Services and the Berkeley Lab present a set of lectures for NERSC users at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Oakland Scientific Facility, in conjunction with the Spring 2002 NUG meeting.
Other sites are welcome to join this all-day class. The Virtual Venue will be the Lucky Labrador Room. We will be in the Virtual Venue by 8 AM PDT on the day of the event.
PowerPoint files ARE AVAILABLE NOW for download via the Abstracts Page, and via the links on the agenda items below. Distributed PowerPoint will be used to push the slides during the event. The DPPT Server name will be "ag-display.nersc.gov" which should resolve to the IP address "128.55.13.53". Please check back here periodically for updates.
