CSSCR is for research that is attached to a faculty directed project. The CoE is an affiliated department.


CSDE is for any UW student doing work or research on their own 





CSSCR (Center for Social Science Computation and Research, Savery Hall 110)

The CoE is a "Member department" for UW CSSCR (The Center for Social Science Computation and Research)


Remote desktop access for affiliated faculty and their research assistants. Access is granted on a per-project or per-faculty basis.

  • Faculty in the UW College of Arts and Sciences and our member units [this includes the CoE] are eligible for access to CSSCR-TS1, as are their research assistants or students attached to a faculty-directed project. If you are a student not affiliated with a faculty member currently conducting research on Titus, but are looking for remote computing services, check out the CSDE Terminal Servers. These are STF funded remote desktop servers loaded with social science computational software and designated for student use.
  • Has a (likely free) secure data room

Yanko,

 

Nice to hear from you.  Hope you are doing well during all this covid mess.

 

Yes, CSSCR has a secure data room and we are able to open it upon appointment for users.  The room has some restrictions (i.e. currently only one person can be in the room at a time) due to our covid protocol; plus we are a bit more restrictive in our hours since we don't really staff the main office on a daily basis. But it is quite possible, under current policy, to get someone into the room.

 

You can simply have your colleague send a request to CSSCR@uw.edu and my tech staff and data specialist can help with getting the process going.  Generally it requires some application to the data source with a description of how we set up and manage the clean/secure room.  We can help with the details of the application.

 

Hope this helps... is enough information for you.

 

Best,  Jerry

  • Remote Access Windows Computing (Terminal Servers)

    CSDE maintains Microsoft Windows Servers for general use computing through remote access. These permit anyone with a CSDE Windows Network account to sign into our file servers, access datasets, and run statistical software from anywhere in the world on a familiar Windows desktop environment.


  • CSDE’s Simulation Cluster is a group of 10 Windows terminal servers featuring simulation-specific software intended for computationally intensive work. The Sim Cluster, made possible by funding from the UW Student Technology Fee Committee, is available for use by students and faculty from all CSDE-affiliated departments.

Q: Matt, do you have a physical cold room for "offline" data requirements?


A: Yes !  CSSCR [mentioned above] is a good fit for a physical cold room.

CSDE has a new Virtual Cold Room service called the UWDC, more info about that here:   https://dcollab.uw.edu/

We are NIST 800-171 aligned for ongoing hosting of collaboration-focused restricted data sets accessible via RDP and VPN with 2FA

not free to use tho ;)
