The CNF CAD room (in Phillips 155) is the main location of the computing resources for the facility. A large variety of analysis programs are available to assist in your research needs. Workstations can be used for Windows programs or as x-terminals to facility Unix/Linux servers. CAD Room computer workstations are available for developing your pattern in CAD, fracturing your data for fabrication, or analyzing your results. Computer workstations also include Linux-based thin clients on which one can "Hot desk" (transfer an active session, uninterrupted, from one terminal to another terminal).
Workstations and thin-client terminals are also located throughout the CNF Cleanroom.
Users of CNF computer workstations have a networked file storage space available. The CNF fileservers run OpenAFS (just AFS for short).
Logins to CNF workstations and conversion computers are via Cornell NetID or Cornell GuestID.
