Vales-Alonso in Issue 116 (December 2003) of the Linux Journal. Discusses using Condor for thier work. "While providing functionality similar to that of any traditional batch queuing system, Condor's architecture allows it to succeed in areas where traditional scheduling systems fail." "As a result, Condor can be used to combine seamlessly all the computational power in a community."

July 2002, "National Science Foundation Boosts Grid Computing" by Paul Shread in Grid Computing Planet notes Condor-G's involvement. "The combined result is a full-featured front-end for computational Grids, letting the user manage thousands of jobs running at distributed sites. It provides job monitoring, logging, notification, policy enforcement, fault tolerance and credential management."
June 24, 2002 - "Tap desktop processing power" by Scott Lowe in TechRepublic. "Condor is an amazingly powerful, elegant solution for distributed systems."
March 2002, "Vouching for Condor" by J. William Bell at NCSA Alliance. Maria Ferreyra used Condor in her analysis of the effects of school voucher programs. "This computation took about a week, and, by the time Ferreyra was finished testing the model and working the bugs out, she ran the model about 15 times. Working on a single-processor desktop computer, the computations would have taken about 24 years, according to [Condor staff member Peter] Keller."
February 2002, "The Grid: A New Infrastructure for 21st Century Science" by Ian Foster on Physics Today. "The University of Wisconsin's Condor-G system (http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor) is an example of a powerful, full-featured task broker.

December 1, 2001, "Flight of the Condor," part of the "Collective Brainpower" feature in CIO Insight. "Condor regularly delivers 400 CPU days per day of essentially 'free' computing to academics at the university and elsewhere, more than many supercomputer centers."
October 2001, from the Wisconsin Week, a press release about one of our newest projects.
"Historic Advances: Scientific Clustering Paves the Way" by Steve J. Chapin at TechWeb mentions Condor.
2001, "Planets Prefer Wacky Orbits," by Kenneth Chang, at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications. Page 3: Computer Clusters discusses the use of Condor. Condor was used for simulations of planetary orbits. "On a single workstation, the calculations would 'take forever,' Rasio says. 'Here we can do thousands of integrations on the order of weeks. It's a very nice system." Eric Ford says, "For example, I find the Condor scheduling and transparent file handling preferable to the Origin2000's scheduler and multiple disks."
2001, NETCARE uses Condor to enable electronic design automation.
August 2001, "The State of Distributed Computing." John Ruley interviews John Towns of NCSA in Byte.com about the NCSA distributed computing project.
