The Department of Mathematics operates a state-of-the-art computer network for education, research, and departmental administration. This is predominantly a UNIX-based system consisting of Linux PCs, servers, and Apple Macintosh desktops.
Each office in the department is equipped with at least one networked computer and shared offices generally have more. In addition, there are five 24x7x365 departmental computer labs available for general use. All labs are equipped with a printer. Two color printers are provided for faculty and graduate students in PMA 8.100, and a key card or code access is required. Access to wireless networking is provided throughout the PMA building for faculty, students, staff, and registered departmental guests.
The University’s Informational Technology Services provides extensive on-campus computing Facilities and services, and additional facilities are available via the UT Libraries.
In addition, the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) at the J. J. Pickle Research Campus in north Austin maintains several multi-processor high-performance computing clusters.
TACC’s Visualization Lab also supports education and research in the Department.
The Oden Institute for Computational Engineering & Sciences maintains many facilities and equipment for computational research.
