At the beginning of 2003 the Center was separated from the Computing Center of Stuttgart University and turned into an independent central unit of Stuttgart University. Last March the Land Baden-Wurttemberg shaped up her strategy of cooperation and formed of a new Center of Competence in High-Performance Computing in Baden- Wurttemberg by aS80ciating HLR Stuttgart with the SSC Karlsruhe. At the present time the HLRS is preparing its decision for a new computer system to be planned to be operative in 2005. A safe decision is difficult to arrive at since the offers of the vendors of high-performance computers are continuously and rather rapidly changing. At the lower end the microprocessor based systems are attacked by clusters ofPCs. The superior price-performance VI Preface ratio makes such rather inexpensive systems attractive for a variety of appli- cations, most of which are latency bound. At the upper end microprocessor based systems are pressured by vector-based systems. The latter have seen a revival nourishing on the success and political impact of the earth simulator project.
