Phase II of Data Communications Laboratory

该项目为计算机科学实验室提供了 增强了UNIX、数据通信、图形和 基本的计算机能力。 在获得最先进的UNIX 工作站，学生将提供图形 界面/窗口平台，并有机会留在 UNIX开发的主要顺序，以及更大的 在互联网通信，网络文件系统， 和面向对象编程。 数据采集 通信将允许学生全年访问一个 Novell网络和一个分布式数据库管理系统，作为 以及在一个 使用数据库和Novell应用程序的网络环境 编程接口。 该系统将由双方使用 计算机科学和化学专业。 化学专业学生将 能够研究计算化学，例如，分子 建模，非平凡分子加上随后的 可视化;计算机科学专业将利用该系统 在他们的课程中，包括数据 结构，数字通信，数据库管理，以及 操作系统.

This project provides the Computer Science Laboratory with increased strengths in UNIX, data communications, graphics, and basic computer power. In acquiring state-of-the-art UNIX workstations, students will be provided with graphic interface/windowing platforms and an opportunity to stay on the main sequence of UNIX development, as well as greater capabilities in Internet communications, network file systems, and object oriented programming. The acquisitions in data communications will allow students year-round access to a Novell network and a distributed database management system, as well as opportunities to perform commercial programming in a network environment using both database and Novell application programming interfaces. The system will be utilized by both computer science and chemistry majors. Chemistry majors will be able to investigate computational chemistry, e.g., molecular modeling, of nontrivial molecules plus subsequent visualization; computer science majors will utilize the system throughout their curriculum, in courses including data structures, digital communications, database management, and operating systems.
