Computing and Networking Resources of the Division of Computer Research andTechnology

摘要

The authors have completely revised the format and content of this guide since itwas last published in January 1993. They hope that the new format of the guide will make it easier for users to access the myriad of services that DCRT provides. In the 'Software, Information Resources, and Services' section the authors have added 129 new entries and deleted 108 items that the Division no longer actively supports. This includes a doubling of the number of molecular biology and statistical data analysis packages that the authors actively support, a threefold increase in the number of network and communications protocols and gateways, and the addition of entirely new categories of software such as groupware products and office automation suites. Many scientific databases can be accessed via the Internet, providing ubiquitous access. The authors have added support for a WWW server and for the Silicon Graphics Challenge XL, and will soon develop the SP-2 supercomputer as a powerful parallel processing platform.
