There are far more students than computers, and so we have a priority system: Ìý

1. Booked classes have the highest priority.  If the room is booked for a course and you need a computer for this course, then you can log users off if a previous user has left the computer logged in. If the computers are locked, then force a reboot by holding the power button on the computer down for 5 seconds. Ìý
2. If youÌýwillÌýbe leaving the computer lab,Ìýfor an extended period, then please logoff. Ìý
3. If you are not using the computers forÌýcourseÌýwork and a computer is required by someone, then please vacate the computer if requested.Ìý
4. The computer labsÌýareÌýintended for people physically present. If you wish to run, for example, CFD cases longer than you will be there, you run the risk of having your computer turned off if it is needed.
