Software Capitalization: A Research Facility for Numerical Computation and Software Engineering.

科罗拉多大学计算机科学系将通过升级工作站、增加X终端和获取新的共享内存和分布式内存多处理器，继续开发利用先前CER奖创建的基础设施。这将使该部门的研究人员能够继续他们在科学计算、连接系统和软件系统领域的重要研究。科学计算的研究有三个组成部分：语言和工具、数值算法和应用程序，它们都非常重视并行计算。并行计算也受到连接主义研究者的重视，他们正在研究连接主义的有趣应用，并与科学计算研究者合作开发复杂的优化算法。软件系统研究的范围很广，包括用户界面、数据库、编程环境、分布式系统、语言和语义等方面的项目。系统研究人员为其他研究领域提供系统专业知识和工具的基本来源，以及从事基础系统调查。

The Computer Science Department of the University of Colorado will continue to develop the infrastructure created with their prior CER award by upgrading workstations, adding X terminals, and acquiring new shared-memory and distributed memory multiprocessors. This will enable researchers in the department to continue their significant investigations in the areas of scientific computation, connectionist systems, and software systems. The research in scientific computation has three components: language and tools, numerical algorithms, and applications, which all have a heavy emphasis on parallel computation. Parallel computation is also emphasized by the connectionist researchers, who are making interesting applications of connectionism and are collaborating with the scientific computation researchers in developing sophisticated optimization algorithms. The software systems research has a broad scope, including projects in user interfaces, databases, programming environments, distributed systems, and languages and semantics. The systems researchers provide a basic source of systems expertise and tools for the other research areas, as well as engaging in fundamental systems investigations.
