- The success of the German Reunification requires a unique migration from the traditional Eastern Block system to a modern free society. The successful migration must include a shift from a low state of the art in technology to the high level of science and technology present in the Western Community. The role of supercomputing in this transition will include leading the process of organizational change in research and development. The paper contains a short overview on the current state of this evolution, on the currently used political and administrative tools to keep this evolution on track, and on the influence on the Konrad-Zuse-Zentrum, which is, as a Berlin institution, in the geographical and cultural center of this transformation.
