Terminal Servers

Windows Terminal Servers allow users to log in to the CSDE domain, access files, and use statistical software from any networked computer in the world.

Simulation Cluster

During the Summer of 2005, CSDE received funding from the UW Student Technology Fee Committee and hardware and software donations from Dell and Microsoft which allow us to offer a cluster of eight compute nodes running Windows Terminal Services and entirely dedicated to simulation work.
