I'm about to submit a request for summer students to the "Center for Science and Engineering". They have funds to pay for a limited number of students (maybe 3-5 for all of CS). They want us to try to come up with 1/2 the funds to extend their reach. Students cost $4750 for a 10 week stint. I'm going to send in the current 3 positions we have in FTG: UPC, Vector study, and C/R batch systems. What's the call on whether we should try for someone to do some timings on C/R on the filesystem GUPFS equipment? Should I try to move forward with this?
