Seller's Description:
Very good. 24 cm, . iii, [1], 280, [4] pages. Wraps. Occasional footnotes. Tables. The High Performance Computing Act of 1991 (HPCA) is an Act of Congress promulgated in the 102nd United States Congress as (Pub. L. 102-194) on December 9, 1991. Often referred to as the Gore Bill, [1] it was created and introduced by then Senator Al Gore, and led to the development of the National Information Infrastructure and the funding of the National Research and Education Network (NREN). The act built on prior US efforts of developing a national networking infrastructure, starting with the ARPANET in the 1960s, which laid the foundation for the modern Internet, and the funding of the National Science Foundation Network (NSFnet) in the 1980s. The renewed effort became known in popular language as building the Information superhighway. This hearing was part of the Subcommittee on Science's oversight of the high performance computing and communications program. This multiagency R&D initiative was authorized by the High Performance Computing Act of 1991. In this hearing the subcommittee reviewed the fiscal year 1995 budget request for the program and examined the rationale for the funding priorities that were assigned in the budget request.
