The hpc-announce mailing list has been setup to have a common mailing list to share information with respect to upcoming HPC related events. You are included in this mailing list based on your participation or interest in a previous HPC conference or other event.

The purpose for providing a single mailing list is to allow participants to easily identify such emails, and handle them appropriately. Some options include:

1. If you feel that the number of such emails is too many, filter them to less-frequently-read folders in your email client.

2. Change your subscription to a digest option
(https://lists.mcs.anl.gov/mailman/listinfo/hpc-announce) which will consolidate emails sent that week into a single summary email.  If you do not remember your password (which is needed to change these options), you can reset it using the "Unsubscribe or Edit Options" button at the bottom of the page.

3. Finally, if you do not wish to receive any emails from hpc-announce, you can unsubscribe from the mailing list (https://lists.mcs.anl.gov/mailman/listinfo/hpc-announce). Once unsubscribed, we guarantee that you will not be added back in through participation in a different HPC related conference or event. You will need to send an email to hpc-announce-owner at mcs.anl.gov to be added back on.

If you need help with any of the above, please email us at hpc-announce-owner at mcs.anl.gov.
