Intentions

The workstation can be used for any computationally intense project or homework assignment but is mainly designed to be a rapid prototyping machine. This means that you can easily develop your software after which you offload it to some cloud provider. You can get a user account without sudo rights on this machine

To get a user account you can send an application to the following email address: douwe@dutchnaoteam.nl and make sure it includes the following information:
