Computing technology has rapidly evolved from a focus on the single workstation to a focus on shared resources over an intranet or the Internet. The Computer Information Systems (CIS) and the Engineering Departments are struggling to keep pace with these rapid shifts in computing technology. A critical need, as pointed out by advisory groups, is to develop skills for software technicians such that they can productively function in environments requiring visual, event driven, distributed, object-oriented computing (VEDOC) solutions. Teaching focus toward this end is moving rather slowly, largely inhibited by obsolete or inadequate equipment. This project is designed to develop the computing hardware/software and curricular revisions necessary to train students in cross-platform hardware and VEDOC environments. This project is based upon X-Window GUIs, Linux operating system, and Tcl/Tk. These software tools are freely available and have already been implemented. Underlying hardware is to be developed and curricula revised to meet project objectives. Java is deployed in a later stage of curricula development. Undergraduate students seeking the M.S. degree (a software technicians degree) through the CIS Department, undergraduate students seeking the A.S. Engineering Computer Science transfer degree, and students retraining are affected by this project. *

计算技术已经从关注单个工作站迅速发展到关注内部网或因特网上的共享资源。 计算机信息系统（CIS）和工程部门正在努力跟上计算技术的这些快速变化。 正如咨询小组所指出的，一个关键的需求是开发软件技术人员的技能，使他们能够在需要可视化、事件驱动、分布式、面向对象计算（VEDOC）解决方案的环境中有效地发挥作用。 这方面的教学工作进展缓慢，主要是由于设备陈旧或不足。 该项目的目的是开发计算硬件/软件和课程修订必要的培训学生在跨平台的硬件和VEDOC环境。 该项目基于X-Window GUI、Linux操作系统和Tcl/Tk。 这些软件工具是免费提供的，并已得到实施。 将开发基本硬件并修订课程以满足项目目标。 Java在课程开发的后期阶段部署。 本科生寻求M.S.学位（软件技术学位）通过CIS部门，本科生寻求A.S.工程计算机科学转移学位，学生再培训受到这个项目的影响。 *
