The University of Arizona’s Computer Science Department is a quality research program. The most recent National Research Council rankings place the department 33 rd out of 108 PhD-granting institutions nationwide, despite the fact that we are a comparatively small department. In addition, we are the best Computer Science department of our size among publicly funded Universities, with the highest in number of citations (references) per faculty, and 17 th overall in the number of publications per faculty. Another measure of our research productivity includes awards of external research funding in excess of $2.
5 million from such prestigious sources as DARPA, INTEL, and NSF, including our fourth 5-year Research Infrastructure awarded in 2000. Our faculty serve on the editorial boards of a variety of journals, serve on program committees, publish books, and serve as fellows and chairs of organizations within the ACM and IEEE. In terms of teaching, our undergraduate and graduate curriculum provides a timely and well-rounded view of the field, with special emphasis on the practical aspects of building useful software. Our strengths lie in the traditional mainstream of areas of computer science: algorithms, programming languages, operating systems, distributed computing, networks, databases and theory of computing.
We also offer courses in some subfields: graphics, artificial intelligence and the software aspects of computer architecture. The department’s programs prepare students for positions in the design and development of computer systems and applications, in business and industry, and for scientific positions in industrial or academic computing research. The Computer Science department was established in 1973 as a graduate department offering masters and doctoral degrees. An undergraduate program was initiated in 1989. We currently have 15 faculty members, 3 lecturers, 5 technical support staff, and 4 research programmers affiliated with specific funding. The graduate program contains 61 MS students, 22 PhD candidates: the undergraduate program has 205 bachelors students and 400+ pre-majors.
The Research paper on Probation Departments Department Community Program
Probation I chose to report on the Los Angeles Probation County Department. The Probation department is apart of the corrections branch of Criminal Justice. I sat down and interviewed peace officer Stacey Armstrong. The first important question that I asked was "what is your agencies primary mission" Officer Armstrong replied, "Our primary mission here in Probation is to promote and improve public ...
There are currently three Computing Laboratories available: Harvill 332 b (houses a 31-station Pentium III based Windows 2000 instructional lab), Gould-Simpson 228 (contains a 50-station Xterm & Pentium III based Windows 2000 instructional lab), and the Research Lab in Gould-Simpson 748/756. Students receive accounts on both the main instructional machine, Lecture, (a multiprocessor, Sun Sparc Server running the Solaris operating system), and on the Windows 2000 network. All systems have access to 100 Mb switched Ethernet connections and direct Internet connectivity. The Gould-Simpson Research Lab contains numerous Pentium III Windows 2000/Linux OS systems, specialized printers, graphics devices, and PC clusters. Our largest computing cluster is a 64-node Pentium cluster, our newest, a 16-node Pentium cluster supporting non blocking, switched Gigabit ethernet. Two Network Appliance file servers with over 200 GB’s of available file storage provide shared data across systems.
The Research Lab is used by graduate students and faculty for research projects. The Computer Science department is located on the 7 th floor of Gould-Simpson, with offices on the 8 th floor, Bio Sciences East 3 rd floor, and labs on the 2 nd floor of GS and the 3 rd floor of the Harvill building. Our Academic Services Office is located in room 725 of Gould-Simpson.
The Essay on The Problem At Cis Computer Lab
The CIS computer lab on the first floor at Decatur campus has over 100 computers. Looking closely, we can see a familiar logo on the front of every computer that says "Intel Inside, Pentium II." Even though Pentium II computers are on the market for over 4 years, they are still fairly fast computers. Many schools and businesses are still using them for their everyday operation, so it is not ...
