If your work requires running large simulation, ie using more than 4 cores, 32GB of memory and over 30 minutes of run time please contact the System Manager Scott Bruce.
If you connecting from outside Canada you must use Carleton University’s VPN service first. https://carleton.ca/its/help-centre/remote-access/
