The Computing Systems and Networks Division
Abstract
This brochure describes the mission and workings of the Computing Systems and Networks Division of the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NAVSWC) in Dahlgren, Virginia. The Division works towards the following objectives: (1) to provide and maintain Center-wide networking and high performance computer access to all Center employees, (2) to perform research and development in networking technology, and (3) to evaluate computer technology and implement new computational tools and capabilities. The Division consists of three Branches: Networks, Scientific Computing Systems, and Engineering and Analysis. Although each Branch is responsible for individually distinct products and services that will be highlighted in this brochure, these groups work together as an interdisciplinary team to effectively accomplish the objectives of the Division's challenging job assignments. The Division's computing and networking facilities and resources service the entire Center with high performance computational capability and provide network connectivity to the majority of the Center's population. These networks provide connectivity not only to the Computing Systems and Networks Division's central computer facility but also to other project specific systems at the Center. The Division also provides worldwide connectivity through the Defense Data Network (DDN) MILNET. Division personnel operate all levels of computer processing from unclassified to top secret, and they operate networks classified to the secret level.
