  * access to a wide range of HPC systems, including 

        + Cray T3D (320 alphas)
	+ Thinking Machines CM-200
        + a range of Meiko Computing Surfaces
        + Sun/SGI Workstation cluster

  * training, support and consultancy on parallel computing

  * accommodation, travel and subsistence expenses

TRACS is open to both academic and industrial researchers resident in 
EC countries and in countries which are EEA signatories (Austria, Finland,
