The purpose of OLCF User Group (OUG) is to provide advice and feedback to the OLCF on the current and future state of OLCF operations and services. A 10-member OUG Executive Board will represent the OUG to the OLCF and serve as advocates for the OLCF user community. The charter detailing the Executive Board’s duties and the function of the OUG can be found at https://www.olcf.ornl.gov/about-olcf/oug/.

All principal investigators and users on approved OLCF user projects are automatically part of the OUG, and will remain so for three years following the conclusion of their OLCF projects. All such persons are also eligible for nomination to serve on the OUG Executive Board. OLCF users will elect three Executive Board members from the nominees during the week of the OLCF User Meeting, May 23-26. The term of service for the successful candidates is three years starting in May 2016 and ending in June 2019.
