Facilities

The Envision Lab Complex in Tyler Hall provides over 100 workstations for student and faculty use - from a traditional teaching lab to state-of-the-art graphics and video workstations.

Envision Teaching Lab
The Envision LabThis is our main teaching lab for undergraduate Computer Science Courses. This lab consists of 30 workstations and seating for several students with personal laptops. On a regular basis, one third of these workstations are upgraded so the lab stays with the most current technologies.
Champlin Interactive 3D Lab
This recent addition to our facilities was made possible by a grant from the Champlin Foundations. The lab is designed specifically for use in the development and teaching of Interactive 3D Graphics. The lab is used jointly by our department and the Art department to train artists, graphics programers, and researchers (some students are all three!). The lab is comprised of 19 Apple Macintosh® G5 workstations and video conferencing facilities.
Parallel Algorithm Development Cluster
MPI ClusterThis cluster of 24+ Linux Workstations has been established to experiment with parallel and multiple-processor tasks such as those found in machine learning, data mining and network simulations.
Render Farm
The 3D Group for Interactive Visualization maintains a render farm consisting of 6 Apple Macintosh® G5 XServe servers and 15 HP DX5150 64 Bit computers. Over the next two years, this initial cluser will increase to handle high quality film and video rendering.
Digital Forensics Center (DFC)
Digital ForensicsThe DFC has a lab of 20 forensic computers ready for training law enforcement officers and computer forensic students. Additionally, the DFC maintains at least 4 forensic equipped computers ready to be used on active cases.
