9451190 Lee A research platform developed at the University of Pennsylvania, "teleconferenced workstations", expands a cutting-edge curriculum in Telecommunications and Systems at Penn. "Teleconferenced workstations" are a unique mode of communication currently being used by members of the AURORA Gigabit Testbed, which connects Penn, MIT, IBM Research, and Bell Communications Research. The test bed service provision includes support for multimedia and Teleconferencing. We will use and experiment with this technology as part of a new course entitled "Distributed and Real-time Systems", as well as in an existing course entitled "Telecommunications networks". The courses not only discuss the principles behind the technology, but have a carefully constructed laboratory component with projects that apply the concepts covered in lectures to components of the prototyped system at Penn. This will not only augment our current curriculum in Telecommunications and Systems, but will serve as an excellent vehicle to evaluate the effectiveness of the teleconferenced workstation environment.

小行星9451190 宾夕法尼亚大学开发的一个研究平台，“远程会议工作站”，扩展了宾夕法尼亚大学电信和系统的尖端课程。“网络参考工作站”是AURORA千兆位测试平台成员目前正在使用的一种独特的通信模式，该平台连接了宾夕法尼亚大学、麻省理工学院、IBM研究院和贝尔通信研究院。测试台服务提供包括对多媒体和会议的支持。我们将使用和实验这种技术作为一个新的课程的一部分，题为“分布式和实时系统”，以及在现有的课程题为“电信网络”。这些课程不仅讨论了技术背后的原理，而且有一个精心构建的实验室组件，其中包括将讲座中涵盖的概念应用于宾夕法尼亚大学原型系统组件的项目。这不仅将增加我们目前的课程在电信和系统，但将作为一个很好的工具来评估远程会议工作站环境的有效性。
