Hi.

It worth to keep an eye on the NCSA website, about applications.
http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/

For example, the last published 'Cover Story' was:
http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/access/CoverStories/phylogeny/
Gene data allow researchers to recover the evolutionary history of plants,
but even the smallest dataset can require impossibly large computations.
Using an Alliance Linux cluster and newly designed software, a team from the
University of New Mexico and the University of Texas have increased the
speed of the process millionfold for one family of plants.


Best regards,
Felipe Nievinski.
