This award from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation and Facilities (CRIF) Program and the Office of Multidisciplinary Activities (OMA) will help the Department of Chemistry at the University of Colorado purchase a parallel processing computer. This equipment will enhance research in a variety of areas including reactions studies relevant to atmospheric chemistry, fundamental studies of molecular reactivity, and aspects of materials. A 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, provides graphics and visualization facilities, and supports research in state-of-the-art applications of parallel processing.

化学研究仪器和设施(CRIF)计划和多学科活动办公室(OMA)颁发的这一奖项将帮助科罗拉多大学化学系购买一台并行处理计算机。该设备将加强多个领域的研究，包括与大气化学有关的反应研究、分子反应性的基础研究以及材料方面。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一种新途径。这种“计算机网络”还可以作为新的理论代码和算法的开发环境，提供图形和可视化设施，并支持对最先进的并行处理应用程序的研究。
