Computer facilities |
|
|
|
|
|
The group owns a number of computers, including PC
Intel Pentium 4, (Stribor), Pentium laptop computer (Shiba), PC Intel Celeron
(OatPC). |
|
|
Stribor (operated by Linux Red Hat 9) serves as the
main group computer. All user files
are stored on Stribor. It has the
latest version of Intel fortran compiler, and users are encouraged to
compile, debug and run their codes using Stribor. |
|
|
Stribor also runs the IMAP mail server and Apache
web server. The group’s website address is http://stribor.phyast.pitt.edu |
|
|
Old large codes (Rayleigh and Compton scattering,
bremsstrahlung) can be run on Oat (operated by Solaris 2.6). Rayleigh &
Compton have also been modified for compilation under the Windows operating
system. The latest versions can be
obtained from L. LaJohn. |
|
|
OatPC runs WindowsXP and has all commonly used
applications. Short term visitors who
prefer Windows over Linux can use OatPC. |
|
|
The group has books available on various operating
systems, languages and software, also hardcopy documentation on the codes. |
