CRCD: Curriculum Development and Infrastructure for an Advanced Systems Laboratory

087945马萨诸塞大学CRCD：高级系统实验室的课程开发和基础设施该项目涉及两个机构之间的合作，即马萨诸塞大学和史密斯学院。该项目整合了当前系统领域的研究成果和前沿实践，特别是在操作系统、分布式系统、实时系统、多媒体系统和网络领域。该项目在计算机课程中纳入了以研究为导向、以实验室为基础、以动手为基础、以实验为导向的教育模块，面向本科生和研究生。新课程和课程项目模块是纳入现有课程的实验室项目池的一部分，并作为两门新课程的基础。除了为模块开发提供资金外，该项目还支持一个多站点的高级系统实验室(包括75台联网的PC和六台路由器-史密斯学院的一台服务器和PC集群，以及马萨诸塞大学的其余服务器和PC)，以每年为大约400名学生提供服务。实验室的作用是允许学生使用动手模块来实施、测量和实验硬件和软件，这些硬件和软件集成了网络、分布式系统、操作系统、多媒体和实时系统等核心领域的最新研究成果。标准模板指导模块开发，其中包括模块格式和模块资源(例如，工具)要求的指南。在这项工作中，PI得到了马萨诸塞大学视频教学计划工作人员的支持，他们在基于视频的教育方面拥有专业知识。

087945Kurose, Jame F.University of MassachusettsCRCD: Curriculum Development and Infrastructure for an Advanced Systems LaboratoryThis project involves collaboration between two institutions, the University of Massachusetts and Smith College. The project integrates current research results and cutting-edge practices in systems, specifically in the fields of operating systems, distributed systems, real-time systems, multimedia systems, and networking. The project incorporates educational modules that are research-driven, laboratory-based, hands-on, experiment-oriented, for both undergraduate and graduate students, in computing curricula. The new course and curriculum project modules are part of a pool of laboratory projects that are integrated into existing courses and serve as the foundations for two new courses. In addition to funding for module development, this project supports a multi-site Advanced Systems Laboratory (including 75 networked PCs and a half dozen routers - one server and PC cluster at Smith College and the remaining servers and PCs at University of Massachusetts) to serve approximately 400 students per year. The role of the laboratory is to permit students to use hands-on modules to implement, instrument, and experiment with hardware and software that integrate recent research results in the core areas of networking, distributed systems, operating systems, multimedia and real-time systems. A standard template guides module development that includes guidelines for module format and module resource (e.g., tools) requirements. The PIs are supported in this effort by the University of Massachusetts Video Instructional Program staff who have expertise in video-based education.
