Teaching Labs: Workstations
These are the workstations available in the teaching labs. Please note that timetabled lab and tutorial sessions have priority over all other uses; details are usually posted on the door of each of the rooms, if not, please check the room timetables.

General notes:
- At some times, the "project" machines may be allocated to specific students for project use and not available for general access.
The fusions and glyphs are fitted with nVidia CUDA-capable graphics cards (including GeForce GT 330 and Quadro NVS).
- The configuration may vary slightly from the above on some machines.
All systems have flat panel LCD colour displays, and are networked via either 100Mb/s or 1Gb/s Ethernet.
- All systems in Room 219 (edges, fusions, matrices and visuals) are single-boot Linux. Windows is available as a virtual service on these machines.
- All systems in Rooms 202 and 206 (pixels and glyphs) are dual-boot Linux and Windows.
See the Linux services page for information on remote login.
Special Test software/services
Wayne Luk's Custom Computing group have node-locked licenses for the Maxeler FPGA Hardware Compiler (see the Maxeler website) to run on matrix01-12 and visual01-23. The software itself lives in /vol/cc, and is intended to be used for MSc projects and practicals for the Custom Computing course, please email Kuen Hung Tsoi for more information.
