Computer Science Facilities

• An Overview describes the computing facilities available to members of the CS Department.
• For authorized individuals looking to access UNIX machines and email servers supported by the department from remote locations we provide software to allow you to do so with a reasonable degree of security.
• We currently support nine undergraduate computing Labs. Purdue Information Technology (Purdue IT) maintains a large number of research and instructional laboratories. Most of the Purdue IT Facilities are available to members of the CS Department.

Campus Resources

Purdue Information Technology (Purdue IT) operates the Rosen Center for Academic Computing (RCAC), now referred to as Research Computing. They have several large clusters of computers that are made up of nodes purchased by research faculty across campus. They also operate several large (petabytes) storage and archival systems. A few of the relevant resources at RCAC are:

• Data Depot
• REED Restricted Data Folder
• Fortress Archive
• Bell Cluster
• Gilbreth GPU Cluster
• Halstead Cluster
• Scholar Instructional Cluster

Check out all their resources at Rosen Center for Advanced Computing website.

Purdue Libraries maintains the Purdue University Research Repository, an online collaborative working space and data-sharing platform to support the data management needs of Purdue researchers and their collaborators.
