 Research Facilities
The Department has an enviable collection of facilities for advanced research
in systems and computer engineering. There are about 100 engineering
workstations, primarily SUN but also NT and other types, on an Ethernet local
area network, multiprocessor target systems, and many other stand-alone and
networked workstations. The network is part of the Internet and so has access to
the World Wide Web, electronic mail, network news, and much public domain
research software. There are also numerous high-end PCs and Macintosh computers,
many equipped for desktop video conferencing.
Software includes all of the standard programming and AI languages, symbolic
algebra systems, wordprocessors, and various packages specific to
telecommunications, signal processing, performance analysis, software
engineering, and other areas of research.
The communications and image and signal processing labs provide
state-of-the-art test, measurement, and prototyping facilities which include
radio transmission and test equipment (up to EHF frequencies), co-processor
boards, audio equipment, data acquisition hardward, interactive video
conferencing lab equipment, robots, etc.
