Development of Network Experimentation Laboratory for Technology Majors at University of Southern Colorado

该项目建立了一个实验室，用于研究使用小型局域网的计算机网络。在过去五年，网络在整个社会的普遍使用，以及工商界局域网的激增，都要求理工科毕业生获得有关电脑网络的资源和指导。正在开发一个专门供工程技术和计算机科学技术专业学生学习网络的实验室，该实验室包括一个10个工作站的局域网、一台局域网分析器计算机、一台远程访问计算机、操作系统软件和教学所需的必要开发软件。五门不同的网络课程将使用该实验室。学生进行实验，包括网络压力测试、收集和分析网络统计数据以及使用客户端-服务器数据库进行服务器应用程序设计。

This project establishs a laboratory for studying computer networks using a small local area network. In the past five years, both the pervasive use of networks throughout our society and the proliferation of local area networks in the business and industrial community demand that technology graduates be provided access to resources and instruction in computer networks. A laboratory dedicated to the study of networks by both engineering technology and computer science technology students is being developed that consists of a 10- workstation local area network, a local area network analyzer computer, a remote access computer, operating system software and the necessary development software required for instruction. Five different network courses will use the laboratory. Students perform experiments which include network stress testing, collecting and analyzing network statistics and server application program design using client- server database.
