- If Y :
- Type of lab workstations used
- CPU-only
- GPU
- The importance of lab workstations to my research is : High, medium, low
- My lab workstations are managed by :
- Academic and Research Computing Systems (ARCS}
- IST other than ARCS
- Internally by a research group member
- Other
- Not managed
- I would like to have my lab workstation(s) managed by IST : Y/N
- What operating system does your group predominantly use for your workstations : Linux (CentOS, Red Hat, Ubuntu, etc.), MacOS, Windows
- If your group could exclusively use one operating system for your workstations, which would it be : Linux (CentOS, Red Hat, Ubuntu, etc.), MacOS, Windows, One OS is not an optiom
- Would you consider an IST-managed VDI environment (with and without GPU) utilizing bring-your-own-device (BYOD), instead of Linux/MacOS/Windows workstations : Y/N/Maybe
- If Y or Maybe :
- If you would use, or might use, CPU-only VDI
- What would be the expected daily use of a CPU-only VDI in hours per day : <2, 2-6, 7-12, >12
- What is the maximum annual cost you are willing to pay for VDIs (CPU only) : <$100, $100-500, $501-1000, >$1000
- If you would use, or might use, GPU VDI
- What would be the expected daily use of a GPU VDI in hours per day : <2, 2-6, 7-12, >12
- What is the maximum annual cost you are willing to pay for GPU VDIs : <$500, $500-1000, $1001-2000, >$2000
- In your estimation, what percentage of your VDI usage will require GPUs : 0%, 1-25%, 26-50%, 51-75%, >75%
- My research currently uses laptops : Y/N
- If Y :
- The importance of laptops to my research is : High, medium, low
