## Internet Access
##### Short-term/Workshop Visitors
For attendees of ICERM workshops and other short-term visits of less than two weeks, the **Brown-Guest** wireless network is available for use without a password. Please be aware that Brown’s guest wireless network is unencrypted and bandwidth is limited. You cannot access library resources and some other Brown resources using Brown-Guest, and some types of traffic are restricted.
The **[eduroam](https://www.eduroam.us/ "https://www.eduroam.us/")** network is also available here at ICERM. Participants must set up eduroam first through their home institutions in order to use it at ICERM and other Brown facilities.
##### Long-term/Semester Visitors
All long-term visitors who will be at ICERM for at least two weeks are provided with a Brown account and ID card. Along with access to various Brown University services, this Brown user account will provide you with access to Brown's secure wireless network **Brown**. See the [Wireless Access](https://docs.icerm.brown.edu/books/it-resources/page/wireless-access-at-icerm "Wireless Access at ICERM") page for step-by-step setup instructions.

## Printing & Scanning
#### Public Printing Terminals
Printing is available for visitors from the Chromeboxes by the reception desk on the 11th floor. These devices will allow you to print from any website or from a USB drive.
#### Printing from your Laptop
ICERM's three public printers are also enabled for [wireless printing](https://docs.icerm.brown.edu/books/it-resources/page/printing-at-icerm "Printing at ICERM") and are accessible from the Brown, Brown-Guest, and eduroam [wireless networks](https://docs.icerm.brown.edu/books/it-resources/page/wireless-access-at-icerm "Wireless Access at ICERM"). Detailed information about our printers and their locations and capabilities are available on the [Printing at ICERM page](https://docs.icerm.brown.edu/books/it-resources/page/printing-at-icerm "Printing at ICERM"). In addition, operating system specific instructions are available for [macOS](https://docs.icerm.brown.edu/books/it-resources/page/printing-on-macos "Printing on macOS"), [Windows](https://docs.icerm.brown.edu/books/it-resources/page/printing-on-windows "Printing on Windows"), and [Linux](https://docs.icerm.brown.edu/books/it-resources/page/printing-on-linux "Printing on Linux").
#### Scanning
The ICERM copy machine (located behind the reception desk) is a multi-function copier that's able to scan papers to PDF and email them directly to you. Feel free to ask any staff for assistance with using the scanner.

## Computing Resources
#### High-Performance Computing
Long-term visitors to ICERM are provided with an exploratory account on the [Oscar high performance computing cluster](https://docs.icerm.brown.edu/books/oscar "Oscar") maintained by [Brown's Center for Computation and Visualization](https://ccv.brown.edu). Oscar access may also be provided to short-term visitors on a case-by-case basis with justification and advance notice. See the [Oscar High-Performance Computing Cluster (HPC) section](https://docs.icerm.brown.edu/books/oscar "Oscar") of this site for details on how to use Oscar.
