(Ticaret) The assigned location used by labor personnel to perform an operation, which may be composed of multiple tasks. Production lines are often a continuous stream of linked workstations
A networked personal computing device with more power than a standard IBM PC or Macintosh Typically, a workstation has an operating system such as unix that is capable of running several tasks at the same time It has several megabytes of memory and a large, high-resolution display Examples are Sun workstations and Digital DECstations
A computer connected to a network at which users interact with software stored on the network
provides network connections and communications The workstation service is a user-mode wrapper for the Microsoft Networks redirector It loads and performs configuration functions for the redirector, provides support for making network connections to remote servers, provides support for the WNet APIs and furnishes redirector statistics If this service is turned off, no network connections can be made to remote computers using Microsoft Networks
Computer, usually a personal computer (PC), that sits on a user's desk End users' workstations must conform to a certain configuration if they are to perform certain functions, such as data entry, viewing data and reporting, with PeopleSoft The Project Office will specify this configuration See Desktop
A networked personal computer with more power than a standard PC
A "smart" computer terminal that serves as a primary scientific research tool, offering direct access to experimental apparatus, information files, internal computers, and output devices, usually connected to an external communications network
a workstation is generally a computer on a network This means it is connected to other computers in your building and/or in your company wherever they may be A single computer by itself is usually referred to as simply a "computer" neat name, huh?
A computer that is connected to a network A workstation has its own processor, processes applications locally and may access data and resources located elsewhere on the network
A personal computer that may operate in a stand-alone environment, or may be part of a computer network Workstation sometimes refers to a computing system that is more powerful than a simple personal computer
A workstation is a screen and keyboard that are part of an office computer system. Computer intended for use by one person, but with a much faster processor and more memory than an ordinary personal computer. Workstations are designed for powerful business applications that do large numbers of calculations or require high-speed graphical displays; the requirements of CAD/CAM systems were one reason for their initial development. Because of their need for computing power, they are often based on RISC processors and generally use UNIX as their operating system. An early workstation was introduced in 1987 by Sun Microsystems; workstations introduced in 1988 from Apollo, Ardent, and Stellar were aimed at 3D graphics applications. The term workstation is also sometimes used to mean a personal computer connected to a mainframe computer, to distinguish it from "dumb" display terminals with limited applications
{i} place equipped as a unit for performing work; computer terminal, complete computer system (Computers)
personal computer networked to other computers Sometimes more capable than a desktop model
A networked computer that uses server resources A computer that is connected to a mainframe computer It is usually a personal computer connected to a Local Area Network (LAN), which shares the resources of one or more large computers Workstations differ from terminals or dumb terminals in that they can be used independently of the mainframe Also, they can have their own applications installed, as well as their own hard disks A type of computer that requires a significant amount of computing power and that can produce high-quality graphics
A class of desktop machine, conventionally considered more powerful than a personal computer (or microcomputer) As personal computers have continued to become more powerful, the distinction between personal computers and lower end workstations has blurred
A workstation is a client computer (stand alone machine) on a (Local Area Network) or Wide Area Network that is used to run applications and is connected to a server from which it obtains data shared with other computers Workstation is also used to describe a high-priced PC that uses a high-performance microprocessor and proprietary architecture to create what some call an "open" system
A single terminal or personal computer that may or may not be connected to a larger Network
a workstation is generally a computer on a network This means it is connected to other computers in your building and/or in your company where ever they may be A single computer by itself is usually referred to as simply a "computer" - neat name, huh?
depending on context, generally a very powerful and fast computer (single-user or multi-user) that can connect to a network and perform functions more advanced than those of dumb terminals; workstations may be without their own hard drive storage units, and less robust computers can be called workstations as well Workstations employed as servers may serve dozens or hundreds of remote terminals, as is the case when users log in to SunServers like chip, dale, and the like, and run Unix programs like Pine To compound confusion even further, "work station" in a generic sense connotes a person's work space, his/her computer and desk
A desktop computer that performs local processing and accesses LAN or WAN services
A client computer on a LAN or WAN that is used to run applications and is connected to a server from which it obtains data shared with other computers Workstation is also used to describe a high-priced PC that uses a high-performance microprocessor and proprietary architecture to create what some call an "open" system
Any individual personal computer that is connected to a network
A computer including its console and the box that the monitor, keyboard, mouse, and others plug in to The box always contains one or more CPUs and RAM It may also have a network interface card (e g Ethernet), hard disk drive(s), floppy disk drive(s), CD-ROM drive(s) Unlike PCs, workstations are frequently connected to external hard disk drives in addition to or instead of internal hard disk drives
A personal computer with a Central Processing Unit, or CPU (containing a hard drive, RAM memory, a floppy disk drive, and in some cases a CD-ROM drive), a monitor, keyboard, and mouse, and, in the case of the Dallas Public Library STAR System, one which is connected to the DRA network If a workstation were disconnected from the network, it could still operate as an independent computer, in contrast to dumb terminals which are capable only of displaying information sent from a mainframe computer
A term loosely used to describe a microcomputer and associated hardware and software on the desktop or a PC that is attached to a network
Generic term for any standalone computing setup More popular usage for this word is for powerful UNIX machines that feature their own processor and run a complex windowing system
A networked personal computing device with more power than the standard personal computer (such as the PC or Macintosh) Typically, a workstation has a very powerful operating system, one capable of running many programs at the same time
a desktop digital computer that is conventionally considered to be more powerful than a microcomputer
diskless workstation
workstation which only uses the disk on the server (Computers)
professional workstation
high-speed computer built for professional applications which require difficult calculations
workstations
The PCs connected to a LAN The personal computers on a given LAN need not be hardware or software compatible, eg A LAN could host both IBM and Apple systems Further, in addition to functioning as LAN devices, workstations may also be used in stand-alone mode
workstations
Micro or minicomputers which are nodes on a computer network and which can be used to perform a number of tasks by using their own resources as well as by tapping into the other devices which are shared on the network
workstations
Personal computers connected to a network; often have powerful calculating and graphics capabilities and are frequently used by engineers 1 13, 6 27
workstations
A class of computers small enough in size and cost to be used by a small group or an individual in their own work location yet powerful enough for large-scale scientific and engineering applications Typically with a Unix operating system and good graphics
