Offices

Each graduate office typically has at least one general purpose CSLab machine. While these machines do not restrict logins locally or remotely, it is expected that you seek the permission of the people whose office the machine is in before using it.

Public Labs

  • Amos Eaton 217 has 10 public machines running Ubuntu available with guest logins for light computing needs along with wired laptop jacks and wireless networking.

Research Labs

Many faculty maintain labs for use with their research projects. Machines in these labs are typically to be used only by members of the appropriate faculty member's research group. These labs include:
  • Amos Eaton 118 is dedicated primarily to Cisco Academy networking hardware
  • Amos Eaton 211 is the Lab of Carlos Varela for distributed and grid computing applications and middleware; specifically "SALSA"
  • Amos Eaton 204 is Professor Adali's Multimedia Information Integration Lab, containing several workstations dedicated to teaching and research in that area.

Remote access

  • remote.cs.rpi.edu has some older FreeBSD machines that people with old accounts can use (1G ram, 2.2GHz P4)
  • linux.cs.rpi.edu is a rotary of new Ubuntu machines (Xeon X3460@2.8GHz w/8G ram, Xeon X3360@2.83GHz w/8G ram)

Other Resources

  • Resources in the CCNI may be available to people doing parallel computing
