The purpose of this proposal is to seek matching funds for the acquisition of eleven Unix workstations. These workstations are needed to replace obsolete machines and to reduce the student/workstation ratio in light of a continuing increase in the number of majors. Since the last computer acquisition in 1997, enrollment in the major has increased from 60 to approximately 90 students. The older machines which these workstations would replace will be distributed in other teaching labs or will be used exclusively for research, where system speed and simultaneous usage is not as critical as in a classroom setting. The workstations requested in this proposal will be installed in the newly constructed Synoptic/Dynamics teaching lab where the majority of courses are taught, and thus will provide the greatest accessibility to students.

本提案的目的是为购置11个Unix工作站寻求对等资金。 这些工作站是需要取代过时的机器，并减少学生/工作站的比例，因为专业的数量不断增加。 自1997年最后一次购买计算机以来，该专业的入学人数已从60名学生增加到约90名学生。 这些工作站将取代的旧机器将分布在其他教学实验室或专门用于研究，其中系统速度和同时使用不像教室环境那样重要。 本提案中要求的工作站将安装在新建的天气/动力学教学实验室中，大部分课程都在该实验室教授，因此将为学生提供最大的可访问性。
