areas including programming languages and methodology, computer
architecture, systems analysis and design, theory of computation, database
systems, computer graphics, artificial intelligence, software engineering,
formal methods, data communications and networks, operating systems,
systems programming and compiler design.

The Department operates two multi-processor Encore Multimax computer
systems (to be replaced in 1993), a Sun 4 mini-computer and a VAX ll/750
all running UNIX.  A wide range of computer laboratories and networked
workstations are available for teaching and research.  Students also make
use of the University's Computer Centre mainframes and super-computer
facilities.
