A grant has been awarded to the University of Hawaii's Institute of Marine Biology (HIMB), under the direction of Dr. Jo-Ann Leong, to improve the HIMB's linkage to the internet, and therefore the larger research community. Because of its location on a small island off Oahu, HIMB must negotiate daily with issues of transportation and communication. Communication links with other members of the research community both on the main campuses at the University of Hawaii in Manoa and Hilo as well as our collaborators on the mainland United States and the international community are critical to the success of the institute, its faculty and students. This grant will help to improve HIMB data management and communication systems and provide vastly improved electronic communications. Gigabit microwave dishes, provided by the manufacturer, will soon connect HIMB to the University of Hawaii communications system via Windward Community College. This grant will provide high speed switches and routers on HIMB and allow the institute to take full advantage of the new high speed microwave connection to the internet. A new server will enhance HIMB's data management and reduce software costs. The upgraded communications system will not only enhance HIMB's ability to communicate with colleague and collaborators the world over, but it will allow the high speed data transfer which is necessary for bioinformatics and the broadband communication needed for real time transmission of video. This NSF grant will HIMB to take full advantage of the opportunity created by the donation of the high speed microwave radios.

在梁卓安博士的指导下，夏威夷大学海洋生物研究所（HIMB）获得了一笔赠款，以改善HIMB与互联网的联系，从而扩大研究界。 由于它位于奥廷加附近的一个小岛上，HIMB每天都必须就交通和通信问题进行谈判。 与研究界的其他成员都在马诺阿和希洛的夏威夷大学的主校区以及我们的合作者在美国大陆和国际社会的沟通联系是至关重要的研究所，其教师和学生的成功。 这笔赠款将有助于改善HIMB数据管理和通信系统，并大大改善电子通信。由制造商提供的千兆位微波盘将很快通过向风社区学院将HIMB连接到夏威夷大学的通信系统。 这笔赠款将在HIMB上提供高速交换机和路由器，并使该研究所能够充分利用新的高速微波连接到互联网。 一个新的服务器将加强HIMB的数据管理和降低软件成本。升级后的通信系统不仅将增强HIMB与世界各地的同事和合作者进行通信的能力，而且还将实现生物信息学所需的高速数据传输和视频真实的实时传输所需的宽带通信。 NSF的这笔赠款将使HIMB充分利用捐赠高速微波无线电所创造的机会。
