Some postdoctoral positions are available at Center for Computationally 
Intensive Physics, Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The positions are to
support the computational project titled the Quantum Structure of Matter
funded under the US DOE High Performance Computing and Communications 
Program. The Center for Computationally Intensive Physics is a collaboration 
among physicists at the Oak RidgeNational Laboratory, the University of 
Tennessee, and Vanderbilt University. The computational project Quantum 
Structure of Matter will undertake forefront investigations on the 
fundamental structure and dynamics of matter on the microscopic scale. 
This interdisciplinary research spans the areas of atomic, nuclear, 
condensed matter and particle science. Available computational
resources will be the new Intel Paragon parallel super computer at the 
Oak Ridge National Laboratory.The applicants are expected to have an 
excellent background in scientific computing and the experience
required for working in a distributed computing environment. Candidates 
can apply by sending a curriculum vitae, publications list, and the 
names of three references to:

6. Chinese Scholars of Political Sci. & Int'l Studies (CSPSIS)............36

The Chinese Scholars of Political Science and International Studies, Inc. 
(CSPSIS) is an academic society by the Chinese students and scholars 
studying, teaching, or engaging research mainly in political science, 
international relations, and related disciplines in the United States, with 
about 300 formal members and associates. 

CSPSIS was established six years ago and has been granted status as a 
501(c)3 independent and academic organization in this country. Since 1986, 
CSPSIS has held six consecutive annual conferences in Houston, Boston, New 
York, San Francisco, Washington D.C., and San Diego respectively. It has 
published a journal of POLITICAL SCIENCE AND INTERNATIONAL STUDIES and a 
series of newsletters, maintained close contacts with its members and 
compiled their academic information, and organized several collective 
research projects. 

As for current and future activities, the Board of CSPSIS has selected two 
primary goals since 1991. First, CSPSIS is strengthening its relations with 
both American and Chinese academia. Second, CSPSIS is enhancing and 
expanding its research activities. 

CSPSIS has been reinvigorating its relations with corresponding institutions 
and colleagues back in China. It has established a formal relationship with 
the American Chapter of the Western Returned Students' Association in 
Beijing (Oumei tongxuihui). From May 1991 to February 1992, CSPSIS sent 9 of 
its members back to their home or associated institutions as short-term 
teaching personnel, giving lectures and providing research assistance in 
institutions such as Beida, Renda, Nanda, the Graduate School of Chinese 
Academy of Social Sciences, Beijing University for International Relations, 
Shanghai Institute for International Studies, Shanghai University for 
International Studies, etc. The successful conclusion of the 1991-1992 
teaching project has been regarded highly by all participants, their hosting 
institutions, as well as the supporting U.S. foundations. In summer 1991, 
CSPSIS provided $ 3,000 for flood relief in China.
