Advanced Engineering Environments


Advances in the capabilities of technologies applicable to distributed networking, telecommunications, multi-user computer applications, and interactive virtual reality are creating opportunities for users in the same or separate loca- tions to engage in interdependent, cooperative activities using a common computer-based environment. These capa- bilities have given rise to relatively new interdisciplinary efforts to unite the interests of mission-oriented communities with those of the computer and social science communities to create integrated, tool-oriented computation and commu- nication systems. These systems can enable teams in wide- spread locations to collaborate using the newest instruments and computing resources. The benefits are many. For ex- ample, a new paradigm for intimate collaboration between scientists and engineers is emerging. This collaboration has the potential to accelerate the development and dissemination of knowledge and optimize the use of instruments and facilities, while minimizing the time between the discovery and application of new technologies.
