Computing Facilities
Excellent computing facilities for both the undergraduate and
graduate programs in Computer Science are available at The University
of Georgia. The Computer Science Department maintains a network
of personal computers, workstations and multiprocessor servers.
The backbone of the department's network consists of several SUN
Microsystems servers. Connected via Ethernet/Fast Ethernet to these
servers are numerous UNIX Workstations (primarily SUN Ultra workstations)
as well as an even larger number of Pentium II/III personal computers.
For output, the networks connect several laser printers, color printers,
line printers and pen plotters. Specialized input devices include
a Hewlett-Packard scanner, a Sony video camera and Data Translation
image capture board, and several SUN video camera/image board systems.
University Computing and Network Services (UCNS) supports mainframe
computers, research machines and computing clusters for general campus-wide
use by students and faculty. For resolution of common questions related to
working in the labs, please see the FAQ.
