>> The 2nd SURA Cyberinfrastructure workshop focused on Grid Application
>> Planning & Implementation will be held December 6 - 8, 2005 at the
>> Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC), UT Austin.
>>
>> ** Early registration ends Nov. 22 - affordable at $125, thanks to
>> the support of our sponsors! **

>> Registration, Agenda, and Travel info:
>> http://www1.sura.org/6000/gridworkshopDec05.html
>>
>> This workshop is benefiting from the participation of several industry 
>> leaders:
>>     * Cisco Systems, Inc. (Platinum sponsor)
>>     * SUN Microsystems (Silver sponsor)
>>     * United Devices, Inc. (Silver sponsor)
>>     * IBM Corporation (Silver sponsor)
>>
>> The content and format are designed to address the application of
