INSIGNEO Workstations

INSIGNEO has two high-performance communal workstations:

Hostname	Location
colorado.sheffield.ac.uk	Pam Liversidge C+ 13
sugarloaf.sheffield.ac.uk	Pam Liversidge C+ 13

These run Windows Server 2012 and can be used for tasks requiring lots of RAM or GPU acceleration. All user accounts are locally defined (i.e. are unrelated to IT Services accounts) so you will need to request a new username and password for each machine. Remote access: all local users can remotely access the machines using Remote Desktop.

Only one person can use each machine at once, so access is managed using shared Google Calendars:

Hostname	Managers of workstation calendar
colorado.sheffield.ac.uk	Enrico Dall’ara, Claudia Mazza, Shannon Li
sugarloaf.sheffield.ac.uk	Damien Lacroix, Enrico Dall’ara, Cecile Perrault
