Computers are an integral part of a scientist's tools, no less so in astronomy where image processing, theoretical modeling and numerical computation from the bulk of the data reduction, analysis and simulation. An efficient local network & computational resource has been established. Our hardware consists of several servers, workstations, PCs and high performance PC clusters.
