The following information is about Workstation.

Workstation Defined

1) In a computing environment the term "workstation" has historically referred to a particular class of machine: specifically, a very powerful computer with a 32 bit microprocessor, usually with a graphics-oriented display and a mouse, intended for use on a local area network. Workstations in this sense usually run the UNIX operating system. Although many are powerful enough to have several users logged on and using the machine simultaneously, many computing environments assume a workstation will be used by only one person at a time. Well known manufacturers of workstations include Sun, Hewlett Packard, DEC, and, for a time, NeXT

This definition is in context to Computing and Social Science. See more contextual defintions for Workstation.
