SUBJECT:	Call for Proposals - SDSC Triton Research Opportunities
	(TRO) Program

San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC) is pleased to announce the formation of the Triton Research Opportunities (TRO) program--a program to provide campus researchers a mechanism to tap into the expertise of SDSC staff in high performance computing, data-intensive science, and cyberinfrastructure software development; and to stimulate new research collaborations. Successful applicants will partner with an SDSC staff researcher to exploit the capabilities of the Triton Resource (http://tritonresource.sdsc.edu)for their research endeavors.

The TRO program consists of a campus-wide, peer-reviewed proposal competition. Awards will provide Triton cycles and seed funds that enable SDSC researchers to collaborate with campus partners to jointly seek extramural funding. TRO proposals will be solicited semi-annually. The application deadline is March 15, 2010. For more information about the program and a listing of SDSC staff expertise see http://cired.sdsc.edu/tro/troinfo.php or contact Chaitan Baru at baru@sdsc.edu.
