ABSTRACT::
	To determine the need for a parallel computer on campus, a
committee of the Graduate Program in Computer Science surveyed
selected Dartmouth College faculty and students in December, 1991, and
January, 1992.  We hope that the information in this report can be
used by many groups on campus, including the Computer Science graduate
program and DAGS summer institute, Kiewit's NH Supercomputer
Initiative, and by numerous researchers hoping to collaborate with
people in other disciplines.
  We found significant interest in parallel supercomputing on campus.
An on-campus parallel supercomputing facility would not only support
numerous courses and research projects, but would provide a locus for
intellectual activity in parallel computing, encouraging
interdisciplinary collaboration.  We believe that this report is a
first step in that direction.
