The overall goal of the Computer Resources Core is to establish and maintain computer support for a core group of scientists. This support will increase the productivity of our research through better use of computers. Users and support personnel (Computer Specialists) will work together to generate and implement ideas to use software or hardware to enable and facilitate research. The goal is to provide computer expertise within a broad enough scientific context that any one solution would have potential for more than one application. The specific aims are: 1) Communicate and establish common goals. The first aim is to identify problems and solutions that would benefit the maximum number of investigators in the group. Through regular meetings and electronic communications, we will discuss and describe the scientific issues and this will help us focus on potential solutions to improving experimental data collection or analysis using information technology. This discourse will help us identify computational methods that will increase our productivity. 2) Software and hardware solutions. Once a problem or approach is identified, the task will be delegated to the Computer Specialists. The Computer Specialists will examine the possible solutions among the choices of commercial or custom software/hardware. The Computer Specialists will interact with members of the Core to choose the best solution. 3) Software and hardware evaluation and development. In consultation with the members of the Core, the Computer Specialists will select a software package or develop custom software to fit the goals of the experiment or analysis desired. The Computer Specialists will be responsible for testing and debugging software applications and training and assisting core users to apply the software in their research. Likewise, hardware will be implemented in a similar manner. They will also help to disseminate information about solutions to particular problems to other Core investigators who might be able to incorporate such solutions into their own research.

计算机资源核心的总体目标是建立和维护科学家的核心组的计算机支持。这种支持将通过更好地使用计算机来提高我们研究的生产力。用户和支持人员（计算机专家）将共同努力，以产生和实施的想法，使用软件或硬件，使和促进研究。目标是在足够广泛的科学背景下提供计算机专业知识，任何一种解决方案都有可能用于多个应用程序。具体目标是：（1）沟通，确立共同目标。第一个目的是查明问题和解决办法，使小组中尽可能多的调查员受益。通过定期会议和电子通信，我们将讨论和描述科学问题，这将有助于我们专注于使用信息技术改进实验数据收集或分析的潜在解决方案。这篇论文将帮助我们确定将提高我们的生产力的计算方法。2)软件和硬件解决方案。一旦确定了问题或方法，该任务将委托给计算机专家。计算机专家将在商业或定制软件/硬件的选择中检查可能的解决方案。计算机专家将与核心成员互动，以选择最佳解决方案。3)软件和硬件评估和开发。在与核心成员协商后，计算机专家将选择一个软件包或开发定制软件，以满足所需实验或分析的目标。计算机专家将负责测试和调试软件应用程序以及培训和协助核心用户申请 软件在他们的研究。同样，硬件将以类似的方式实现。他们还将帮助向其他核心研究人员传播关于特定问题解决方案的信息，这些研究人员可能能够将这些解决方案纳入自己的研究。
