Abstract
The NeXT workstation represents the state of the art in graphical user interfaces for desktop computing. The University of Pennsylvania's School of Arts and Sciences recently deployed NeXT station in the Office of the Dean for the dean and her staff. In conjunction with the Office of Information Systems and Computing, Penn's central computing division, the School of Arts and Sciences evaluated Macintosh and DOS-based desktops and decided that NeXT represented the best environment for this strategic office. This presentation will review the planning and implementation process, as well as provide a live demonstration of this ground-breaking software environment.
