This award from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation and Facilities Program will assist the Department of Chemistry at the Wayne State University in the purchase of a Convex SPX writer, and a cluster of three HP 735 processors. This equipment will enhance research in a number of areas including the following: (1) perform numerically intensive calculations in the research areas of electronic structure theory and chemical kinetics and dynamics; (2) further develop general computer programs such as VENUS and Gaussian; and (3) educate students in the field of computational chemistry. A workstation network of fast, modern computer workstations is a new way to satisfy the computing needs of chemistry departments. Such a "computer network" also serves as a development environment for new theoretical codes and algorithms, and provides state-of-the-art graphics and visualization facilities.

化学研究仪器和设施计划的这一奖项将帮助韦恩州立大学化学系购买凸SPX写入器和三个HP 735处理器的集群。 该设备将加强若干领域的研究，包括：（1）在电子结构理论和化学动力学和动力学研究领域进行数值密集型计算;（2） 进一步开发通用计算机程序，如VENUS和Gaussian;（3）对学生进行计算化学领域的教育。 快速、现代化的计算机工作站网络是满足化学系计算需求的新途径。 这样的“计算机网络”也可作为新的理论代码和算法的开发环境，并提供最先进的图形和可视化设施。
