CISE Research Infrastructure: The Digital Commonspace

纳特，加里科罗拉多大学博尔德cise研究基础设施：数字公共空间这个研究项目研究共生计算环境，在这种环境中，人们使用小型通信计算机（SCCs）在他们的个人信息空间中收集和使用信息和工具。这个信息空间，我们称之为数字公共空间，由广泛的计算和网络设备管理：SCCs，笔记本电脑，个人电脑和工作站，以及服务器，所有这些都通过一系列网络相互连接。本研究涉及设备、系统和网络；动态互联设施；以及一般应用。共生计算环境中出现了一种新兴的计算模型，在这种计算环境中，传统的计算机科学领域已经变得模糊：必须对操作系统进行定制，以满足应用程序支持工具和应用程序本身的需要。应用程序支持软件必须利用操作系统设计，同时为应用程序提供定制支持。应用程序必须使用新的软件范例来利用应用程序支持工具和操作系统。这个研究项目的个人已经在这些传统领域进行了研究，他们现在把重点放在数字公共空间上，作为推进最先进的共生计算的机制。

EIA-0080146Nutt, GaryUniversity of Colorado - BoulderCISE Reserach Infrastructure: The Digital CommonSpaceThis research program addresses symbiotic computing environments in which people use small, communicating computers (SCCs) to collect and use information and tools in their personal information space. This information space, which we call a Digital CommonSpace, is managed by a broad spectrum of computing and network equipment: SCCs, laptops, personal computers and workstations, and servers all interconnected by a spectrum of networks. This research addresses devices, systems, and networks; dynamic interconnection facilities; and general applications. There is an emerging computing model for symbiotic computing environments in which traditional computer science domains have become blurred: The OS must be tailored to meet the needs of application support tools and the applications themselves. The application support software must exploit the OS design and while providing custom support to the applications. Applications must use new software paradigms to take advantage of the application support tools and OS. The individuals for this research program have conducted research in each of these traditional domains, and they are now focusing on the Digital CommonSpace as the mechanism to advance the state-of-the-art symbiotic computing.
