The Department's research computing infrastructure includes:
- Several high-performance Linux clusters using Gigabit
Ethernet and Myrinet interconnections, and RAID storage.
- Several Sun workstations and Sun multiprocessing servers
with RAID storage
- Numerous PCs running Linux or Windows and servers in the
research labs of individual faculty/research groups
- Specialized computing facilities for research in sensor
networks, embedded computing and reconfigurable computing
- Specialized facilities for research in networking including
network processors, high-end programmable switches and active
network cards
- Specialized facilities and graphics workstations for
research in graphics, animation and face recognition
- All of these facilities are extensively networked, and wireless
access points are available throughout the Engineering School.
Binghamton is also a node on Internet II.
- A significant upgrade of these facilities is planned in the
very near future using
a recent equipment grant from the NSF.
