This MRI award will strengthen the computing and network infrastructure of the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI) by the acquisition of modern Intel Linux desktop workstations, the replacement of a hub-based network infrastructure with switching hardware, and the upgrading of network cabling. MSRI exists to further mathematical research through broadly based programs in the mathematical sciences and closely related activities. Each year the Institute hosts 2-4 major research programs, covering a wide variety of topics in pure and applied mathematics.During the year 1999-2000, MSRI will host three programs on Noncommutative Algebra, Galois Groups and Fundamental Groups, and Numerical and Applied Mathematics. Each of the major programs organizes an introductory workshop and one or more specialized workshops. The computational equipment will be used for research in these areas. The network equipment to be acquired through this proposal is fundamental to obtaining access to the Global Information Infrastructure for formal and informal scholarly communication, the transport of scientific data and the discovery and use of networked literature.

该MRI合同将通过收购现代英特尔Linux台式工作站、用交换硬件取代基于集线器的网络基础设施以及升级网络布线来加强数学科学研究所（MSRI）的计算和网络基础设施。 MSRI的存在是为了通过数学科学和密切相关的活动中广泛的计划来进一步进行数学研究。研究所每年举办2-4个重大研究项目，涵盖纯数学和应用数学的各种主题。在1999-2000年期间，MSRI将举办非交换代数，伽罗瓦群和基本群，数值和应用数学三个项目。每个主要方案都组织一个介绍性讲习班和一个或多个专门讲习班。计算设备将用于这些领域的研究。通过本提案购置的网络设备对于进入全球信息基础设施进行正式和非正式的学术交流、传输科学数据以及发现和使用网络文献至关重要。
