None of which, however, are "Give it to me straight and undigested..." Paul Plaszczak and Rich Wellner wrote a book a few years back called "Grid Computing: A Savvy Manager's Guide." The title and the content really hit home within the target audience. Shall I propose... "High Performance Computing: A Savvy Manager's Guide"??

What? This can't be! I found a "Cray XT/CrayPAT for Dummies" (snuck in a spot for my company (-: ), an "mpi for dummies", but nothing on HPC for well heeled and educated Managers (read pointy haired here. ) I'm saddened. We must fix this! Dumb HPC people UNITE and WRITE! Rich I know, I know. I need to get out more.
