Physics 329: Center for Relativity Machines


The Center for Relativity maintains a cluster of scientific workstations and X-terminals. Most of the workstations, including the ones you will use in this course, are manufactured by Silicon Graphics Inc., (SGI), and several of these SGI machines have medium- to high-end graphics hardware. You will have a common home directory on all of the machines listed below, so you will be able to remotely login to any of them. I suggest that you initially limit your access to einstein or godel.
