</SPAN></FONT><BLOCKQUOTE><FONT FACE="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'> Thanks to work by Jack Dongarra, NSF has agreed to help pay for the cost<BR>
of participants from US institutions who elect to participate in the MPI<BR>
Forum. This grant will begin with the meeting starting next week, and will<BR>
cover one person per institution up to $750 per meeting. There are funds to<BR>
support people from up to 25 institutions. Jack's group at the University<BR>
of Tennessee will be administering the funds.<BR>
To be eligible for these funds, pre-approval is required. I passed on the<BR>
names and e-mail addresses of those from US academic institutions who<BR>
participated in the last meeting. If you are aware of others who would like<BR>
to participate, but were unable to travel, please let then know ASAP, and<BR>
have them send me a note. I will pass these requests on to UT, and get out<BR>
of the middle of this. Unfortunately, there is extra approval needed for<BR>
non-US citizens to be able to use these funds, which may not be able to be<BR>
finished in 3 days, so people who are in that category will most likely need<BR>
to wait until the next meeting to be able to use these funds.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks,<BR>
