National Magnetic Fusion Energy Computer Center _A_d_d_r_e_s_s: National Magnetic Fusion Energy Computer Center Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory PO Box 5509 L-561 Livermore, CA 94550 _E-_m_a_i_l: consultant%mfe.mfenet@ccc.nmfecc.llnl.gov _P_h_o_n_e: (415) 422-1544 _D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n The NMFECC provides state of the art computational resources including three Cray Supercomputers - a Cray XMP-22, and two Cray-2s with 512 Mega-Bytes and 1 Giga-Byte of main memory, respectively. All three Crays use the CTSS time-share Operating System. This system also currently provides over 150 UNIX utilities. The Center operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Archival storage includes an on-line fully automated mag- netic tape cartridge storage system with a total of 3.6 Tera-bytes of capacity. An on-line information retrieval system is provided, offer- ing over 23,000 pages of documentation on use of the Center. Printed hardcopy of all information is also available to all users. The BUFFER is published as a monthly newsletter. Short notes in the form of printed summaries are available. Electronic bulletin boards are available for information about specialized topic areas. A ``NEWS'' capability is provided for daily or short term information. Several con- sultants are also available during normal working hours for individual help. _N_e_t_w_o_r_k _A_c_c_e_s_s The NMFECC supports TCP/IP access and limited (interactive _________________________ The information in this section is provided in accor- dance with the copyright notice appearing at the front of this guide.

Access is available through ESnet, the Internet, the Energy Sciences DECnet, Bitnet for electronic mail, TYMNET, and via dial-up modems. The NMFECC also operates ESnet, a ``T1'' based backbone net- work supporting both IP and DECnet. _W_h_o _C_a_n _U_s_e _T_h_e _C_e_n_t_e_r The NMFECC provides computational resources to researchers and collaborators sponsored by the Department of Energy, Office of Energy Research. Access to resources is provided through a DOE allocation.
