Migration to a Networked Workstation Environment

by Celal N. Kostem, Lehigh Univ, Bethlehem, United States,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Computing in Civil and Building Engineering

Abstract:

Most engineering firms and universities are in the process of migrating from mainframe(s) and/or minicomputer(s) and personal computers to a networked workstation environment. Although this move is a promising one, it also has built-in trouble spots. The paper summarizes selected major problems that can be encountered, and provides suggestions for smoother transitions.
