ASSUMPTIONS There are currently five EE and 17 CS/AM faculty housed in Pierce and Aiken. It's assumed that this number will grow by eight to 30. It's further assumed that these 30 will consist of 5 EE theory, 5 EE systems/experiment, 10 CS theory and 10 CS systems. On the average each faculty member will have three graduate students and one postdoc/visitor. There will be one secretary for every three faculty members. Six professional staff members will be associated with faculty research groups, and six professionals will support computer systems. CLUSTERING >From conversations with various people there would seem to be two different preferences for certain spatial relationships. Some prefer related faculty offices to be clustered together with graduate students and research space elsewhere. (This might be thought of as the office in Pierce, lab in McKay model.) Others, particularly in EE, seem to prefer the faculty office to be collocated with the lab and graduate student spaces. MD will probably need to use both models in different instances. 2/20/97 --------------5C1EBAEE0A52CDF487DAC598--
