SoftLab - a Resource for
Software Development and Technology Transfer


The SoftLab Software Systems Laboratory is a department infrastructure
organization which provides software systems and manufacturing
support services analogous to those typically found in industry.
As such, SoftLab serves as a software development resource for the
department and as an agent of technology transfer to other universities
and industry.

In particular, SoftLab facilitates rapid prototyping of novel architectures
by developing drivers, compilers, interfaces, and other systems software,
by importing and integrating commercial software development tools, and
by promoting an object oriented programming environment. In addition,
SoftLab's primary objectives are evolving to include support of research
in distributed systems.

This talk will describe the objectives, history, and philosophy of
SoftLab with special emphasis on SoftLab's role as a software development
resource and as an agent of technology transfer. Completed projects,
current projects, and future plans will be detailed as well.
