RamamurthyATM-9815897The Department of Atmospheric Sciences (DAS) at the University of Illinois (UI) has been an active user of Unidata systems for nearly ten years. The infrastructure and services built around the Unidata sytem and tools in DAS has allowed UI to make an umber of important advances in teaching, research, and outreacth efforts. The data received via IDD and the concomitant analysis and display software are used in a number of undergraduate and graduate courses. The use of locally-developed web-based tools, built around Unidata systems, in the classroom has had a significant impact on our teaching and student enrollment. Because of extensive use in teaching, rsearch and outreach, Unidata systems are a highly valued resource within the department. While the volume of data received in the department, the capabilities provided by Unidata packages and the uses of those data and software are constantly growing, the computers behind those tasks have not kept pace with the increaseing demand, and are unable to handle the myriad of tasks for which they are used. The limitation posed by thes aging computers is serioulsy hindering our plans to enhance our educational and research programs in the department. Therefore, replacement equipment is requested to continue to provide the level of access to students and to the Unidata community.

伊利诺伊大学大气科学系近十年来一直是Unidata系统的活跃用户。围绕DAS中的Unidata系统和工具构建的基础设施和服务使UI在教学、研究和外展工作中取得了许多重要进展。通过IDD收到的数据以及相应的分析和显示软件被用于一些本科生和研究生课程。在课堂上使用当地开发的围绕Unidata系统建立的基于网络的工具，对我们的教学和学生入学产生了重大影响。由于在教学、检索和外联方面的广泛使用，Unidata系统是该部内一项非常有价值的资源。虽然该部收到的数据量、Unidata程序包提供的能力以及对这些数据和软件的使用不断增加，但这些任务背后的计算机没有跟上日益增长的需求，无法处理它们所用的无数任务。这些老化的计算机造成的限制严重阻碍了我们加强系内教育和研究计划的计划。因此，需要更换设备，以便继续为学生和统一数据系统社区提供接入服务。
