Computer
When in 1990 for the first time more than one (Sun3) Workstation was bought, Caterina Savi started the idea that we would name these workstations in such a way to honor statisticians and mathematicians. We chose to focus on the first names.
Hypatia was the famous Hypatia from Alexandria, one of the first famous female scientists ('hypatia' was for many years our file, mail and web server)
Further information including literature references on our computer names are available in the LaTeX file
/u/sfs/tex/BEISPIELE/sfs-hostnames.tex. Technical information on these machines can be found in
/u/sfs/info/sfs_compi.tex. From both files one can also directly open the corresponding pdf file.
The computing servers of the SfS are named
ada mit n=1,...,14. Die
cmath Maschinen wurden umbenennt:
