**Supercompeting in Science -- *"From Terabytes to Fistfights"***

Summary

***This paragraph should contain a short(!) executive summary of your
project, stressing the goal of the project and its importance. For
example, supercompeting has rapidly emerged as a critical technique for
scientific résumé enhancement, taking its rightful place with the
traditional techniques of plagiarism and exaggeration. The development
of supercompeting coincides with the emergence of on-line publication
techniques, making it possible to publish dozens of minor variations of
an undistinguished paper in mere seconds.***

Each SciDAC project must provide, by 31 Jan 2003, a two-page summary of
the principal goals and accomplishments (science, enabling technology,
etc.) of the project. Large projects (e.g., ISICs) may submit more than
one independent but related document. All documents, when collated, will
form the basis for a report on computation and simulation in the DOE
Office of Science. The report will be widely circulated both within DOE
and externally, including OMB, Congress, etc.

Your "two-pager" should have a descriptive title and the name of the
project PI(s). Co-PIs and affiliated researchers, including and
especially from other SciDAC teams, should also be listed. One or two
pictures, diagrams, or charts would be effective but are not necessary.
Describe your research in a way that is understandable to a reasonably
educated person but one who is definitely not an expert in your field.
Try to avoid field-specific jargon and please ensure that all acronyms
and field-specific technical terms are defined at their first
appearance. The writing in the Tuesday *New York Times* Science section
is a good example of appropriate level.

As you write your "two-pager," remember that the driving force behind
SciDAC is science. One of the program's principal goals is to assemble
interdisciplinary teams and collaboratories to develop the necessary
state-of-the-art mathematical algorithms and software, supported by
appropriate hardware and middleware infrastructure, to use terascale
computers effectively to advance fundamental research in science central
to the DOE science mission. Your write-up should emphasize this overall
goal as well as address the following questions, as appropriate:

1.  What has your SciDAC project accomplished that has enabled
    scientists to better realize the potential of terascale computing?
    What science can be done now that was not previously possible?
    Please be specific about which application area(s) you have worked
    in and with whom as well as how your work is being used by others.

2.  How is the SciDAC team approach to science changing the way you
    conduct your research? How have you advanced the state-of-the-art or
    the state-of-the-science?

3.  What specific algorithmic or software tools or technology are you
    now able to provide to scientists to enable them to advance their
    research through the use of terascale computing? Alternatively, what
    algorithms or software are you using from other SciDAC projects,
    especially the ISICs, that are helping to advance your research?

4.  What are your plans for the next year or two in accomplishing your
    project's goals in the SciDAC context? Again, be as specific as
    possible about your interactions with other SciDAC teams.

5.  What resource needs do you anticipate, both for high-end computing
    platforms and for associated infrastructure (including networking),
    to accomplish your goals?

To preserve uniformity for publication and to permit editing of the
documents, please try not to deviate from this template. In particular,
submissions must be in MS Word (or equivalent such as StarOffice), and
maintain the template form (two-column, with given fonts, figure sizes,
etc.). We apologize in advance to all who are discommoded by this
request.

The rest of this "two-pager template" is filler. We are committed to
engage in assertively streamlining client-centered net-relationship
corridors and enabling open-source supply-chains in order to create a
superior product line. Our duty is to execute a strategic plan involving
revolutionizing our cyber-synergies as part of a larger strategy to meet
the wants of our valued customers and successfully market an overhyped
more expensive line of products.

It is our duty to work to syndicate our e-markets to exceed customer
requirements. We are committed to effectively spearhead face time to
conveniently engineer two-tier cyber-metrics to prevent bankruptcy. Our
business is to strive towards professionally leveraging action items and
maximizing our future-proof networks so that we may stay competitive for
today\'s universe. We have committed to take steps towards expertly
envisioning our skill sets and maximizing our frictionless
infrastructures.

mastery of colors.*

It is our obligation to synergistically synergize synergistic assets and
intuitive mega-paradigms as part of our five-year plan to create a finer
line of products. We endeavor to successfully streamline portals to
permit us to produce a more affordable product that vanquishes our
competitors.

It is our business to take steps towards engineering our massively
parallel catalysts for niches as a component of our plan to rout the
rest of the industry and get out of debt. It is our function to endeavor
to leverage our forward-thinking version control as the first step in
our scheme to remain profitable in tomorrow\'s country and make our
founder enough lucre to exceed the net worth of the world\'s richest
man.
