1) desktop engineering computation-intensive design application, not quite in the HPC arena yet, but will soon use OpenMP.

2) program development

Additional remark:

We hope to move to a multi-processor Itanium workstation, at least at first for program development, when there's a compiler available for it that will handle our code. We don't know which distribution we'll use on it.
