Electronic Submission of Tutorial
Proposals for Supercomputing '96


Tutorial proposals may be submitted electronically in either of the following two formats:-

The proposal must follow the guidelines specified in the Call for Tutorials. If using HTML, the entire text of the proposal should be included in a single, linear HTML file named INDEX.HTM so that it can be printed easily.

Submission of Proposal

Proposals should be submitted by ftp to 'ftp.supercomp.org', userid 'anonymous', directory 'Incoming/sc96'. The UNIX tar utility may used to combine multiple pieces into a single file and compressed via UNIX compress (no other compression will be accepted). If unable to use tar then create a new directory under Incoming/sc96. Take care to select a file name that will be unique and not used by another author.

The following is an example of a ftp session.
