Abstract
The expectations for improvement in the quality of academic programs and educational services continue to mount despite the deficiency of financial resources. To meet this challenge, institutions at all levels are turning to technology for improved administrative efficiency and worldwide access to educational resources. Existing and diverse computing resources are being utilized more effectively through a new computer system model: client/server computing.
