The NOTUR 2005 "gathering" is a way for everyone involved with high performance computing in Norway to come together and share their experiences, opinions, and their points of view on how high performance computing should be handled in the future. We encourage HPC leaders, scientists, administrators, industrial partners and vendors to enjoy the hospitality of the conference site, and to broaden their perspectives on high performance computing, during two days dedicated to science and technology.

The NOTUR Consortium is supported by the Research Council of Norway and the member institutions: The Norwegian University of Science and Technology, University of Bergen, University of Oslo, University of Tromsø, and the Norwegian Meteorological Institute.

Representatives from all the member institutions, the Research Council of Norway as well as the rest of the research community is welcomed to join the NOTUR 2005 gathering.
