Future of NSF Supercomputer Centers report
In early 1995, the director of the National Science Foundation convened a Task Force to make recommendations on the Future of the NSF Supercomputer Centers Program. The Task Force has completed its assignment, and its final report has been presented to the National Science Board.

Included at this site are pointers to other studies on the NSF supercomputer centers, and to a survey of user requirements. Summaries and complete responses of the survey are available by anonymous ftp.
