This proposal requests funds to purchase an advanced graphics workstation that will enhance the computer services for users in the areas of biochemistry, biology, and chemistry. The workstation will serve as a local host for the PROPHET system, a national resource sponsored by the National Institutes of Health. The PROPHET system will serve the needs of approximately l50 scientists at the Atlanta University Center Schools, a consortium of seven independent historically black institutions, and other neighboring universities through an easy access to the software via an existing broad-band local area network. In addition to software packages for graphics and molecular modeling, molecular mechanics and reaction kinetics calculations, the users can access gene, protein, and x-ray crystallographic data banks. Support is strongly recommended.//

这项建议要求拨款购买一个先进的图形工作站，以加强为生物化学、生物学和化学领域的用户提供的计算机服务。该工作站将作为PROPHET系统的本地主机，该系统是由美国国立卫生研究院赞助的国家资源。PROPHET系统将通过现有的宽带局域网方便地访问软件，满足亚特兰大大学中心学校（由七个独立的历史上的黑人机构组成的联合体）和其他邻近大学的大约150名科学家的需要。除了用于图形和分子建模、分子力学和反应动力学计算的软件包外，用户还可以访问基因、蛋白质和X射线晶体学数据库。强烈建议支持。//
