Proposal to Create a History of Global Change Information Server (HGCIS)

9312318威廉姆森该项目资助建立了一个电子信息管理和传播服务器--全球变化历史信息服务器，供研究全球变化的经济历史学家使用。该服务器将演变为全球变化经济史研究人员之间的主要交流渠道，并成为全球变化经济史的关键知识、技术细节和一般主题专门知识的储存库。HGCIS的目标是：1)为全球变化研究人员提供一个交流想法、意见和数据的国际论坛；2)开发具有搜索能力并可供所有研究人员访问的在线全球变化数据库；3)维持一个关于论文、会议记录和电子会议的在线图书馆。为实现这些目标，拟议的全球变化网络服务器将汇集一个会员登记册数据库、公告牌、电子会议室、研究室、全球变化数据库和电子图书馆。

9312318 Williamson This project funds the creation of an electronic information management and dissemination server, the History of Global Change Information Server (HGCIS), for the use of economic historians studying global change. The server will evolve into a primary communications channel between researchers of the economic history of global change and into a repository of critical knowledge, technical details, and general subject matter expertise on the economic history of global change. The HGCIS's goals are: 1) to provide an international forum for global change researchers to exchange ideas, opinions, and data; 2) to develop on-line global change databases with search capabilities and accessibility to all researchers; 3) to maintain an on-line library of papers, proceedings, and electronic meetings. To achieve these goals, the proposed global change network server will assemble a membership registry database, bulletin boards, electronic conference rooms, research rooms, global change databases, and electronic libraries.
