Turing

This is a GPU server of the Department of Computer Engineering, University of Peradeniya.

You can use this server using the LDAP login for ce.pdn.ac.lk undergraduates (which is used for CO top floor lab, Aiken and Tesla) without sudo access.

Specifications
  • Intel Core i9-13900K CPU
  • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti GPU
  • 32 GB (2x16 GB) DDR5-6000 Memory
  • 4 TB (2x2 TB) M.2 SSD
Since turing.ce.pdn.ac.lk does not have a public IP, you can either SSH directly from inside the university network, or SSH through Tesla (which has a public IP) from outside the university network. Read how to SSH

Direct (from inside the university network):
ssh e14000@turing.ce.pdn.ac.lk
Jump through Tesla (from outside):
ssh -J e14000@tesla.ce.pdn.ac.lk e14000@turing.ce.pdn.ac.lk

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti

Ubuntu 22.04

  • Ubuntu 22.04
  • NVIDIA-Driver Version: 530.41.03
  • CUDA Version: 12.1 (You can update this using conda)

We store frequently used datasets inside the turing.ce.pdn.ac.lk local storage for easy access. You can access these by the following command: 

ls /storage/datasets/

These datasets are in the read only mode. You can use these datasets as the input for your tasks but you have to output the results to your home directory. The following datasets are stored at the moment.

- THIS LIST WILL BE POPULATED SOON

If you have suggestions for what datasets should be made available on this server, please send a request via email available in https://www.cs.umd.edu/~gihan/contact/ address.
