Thought you would be interested in these offerings from GAO; both for the
content of the reports as well as the continuing efforts to make them
available over the net.

Subject: More GAO reports
Acknowledge-to: KH3@NIHCU.BITNET
December 13, 1991
Dear Internet or Bitnet User,
You had indicated in your E-mail feedback your interest in more
GAO reports dealing with computing and networking.
Two additional U.S. General Accounting Office (GAO) reports are
available over the Internet in our continuing test to determine
whether there is sufficient interest within this community to
warrant making all GAO reports available over the Internet. In
addition a copy of recent GAO testimony about Hackers is available.
They may be of interest to you, and others.
The above are in ASCII text format and available in the
Anonymous FTP directory GAO-REPORTS at the NIH computer center
(CU.NIH.GOV). Use the FTP TEXT mode for down loading.
1. High Performance Computing: Industry Uses of Supercomputers
and High-Speed Networks, GAO/IMTEC-91-58, July 1991.
Provides examples of how various industries are using
supercomputers; identifies barriers preventing the increased
use of supercomputers; and provides examples of how certain
industries are using and benefiting from high-speed networks.
(This report is identified as IMTEC-91.R58 in the FTP
directory, and is 104,998 bytes or 1,966 lines long.)
2. High Performance Computing: High-Speed Computer Networks in
the United States, Europe, and Japan, GAO/IMTEC-91-69,
September 1991. Provides information on United States,
European, and Japanese efforts to develop high-speed computer
networks. (This report is named IMTEC-91.R69 in the FTP
directory, and is 162,584 bytes or 2,856 lines long.)
3. Compputer Security: Hackers Penetrate DOD Computer Systems,
GAO/T-IMTEC-92-5, November 20, 1991. Discusses hacker
intrusions into U.S. Department of Defense unclassified,
sensitive computer systems during Operation Desert Storm/
Shield. (This testimony is named IMTEC-92.T5 in the FTP
directory, and is 15,532 bytes or 361 lines long.)
The Anonymous FTP directory also contains 7 earlier reports, which
are described in the file named REPORTS. A list of GAO reports
released since September 1991 is in the file named A-LIST; it is
updated every week or two.
So that we can keep a count of report recipients, and your
reaction, please send an E-Mail message to KH3@CU.NIH.GOV and
include, along with your E-Mail address, the following
information:
1) Your organization.
2) Your position/title and name (optional).
3) The title/report number of the above reports you have
retrieved electronically or ordered by mail or phone.
4) Whether you have ever obtained a GAO report before.
5) Whether you have copied a report onto another bulletin
board--if so, which report and bulletin board.
6) Other GAO report subjects you would be interested in. GAO's
reports cover a broad range of subjects such as major
weapons systems, energy, financial institutions, and
pollution control.
7) Any additional comments or suggestions.
Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Jack L. Brock, Jr.
Director,
Government Information and Financial
Management Issues
Information Management and Technology Division
