Dear everyone!

I am now  trying to build a good  software developing environment
for  my research  (computer  vision, image  processing and  image
database system).

Please  suggest me  any  idea  for making  use  of the  following
computer facilities;

Apollo WSs (on Domain Net; AEGIS, 4.2, V):
   DSP80 as file server, gateway to Ethernet, master node
   DN300 with high resolution color image scanner camera
   DN320
   DN3000 (diskless node)
   DN570 with image processor, monochrome camera (NTSC)

Sun WSs (on Ether Net; 4.2):
   SUN3/260C (?) (maybe with color image scanner)
   SUN3/60FC (?)
   * (?) means "planning to buy".

I prefer SUN WSs, because there are many SUNs and UNIX hackers in
my laboratory (ETL).

I  personally am  not  familiar to  OS,  software tools,  graphic
softwares for such WSs. Please advise me the smart usage of these
resources.

Thanks in advance.

PS. This is my first post to CSNET. Thank you!
