All Research workstations and laptops are named with a standard convention. The convention is sr, for surrey research followed by the last 5 barcode digits.

For example:

sr-#####

The only exception to the rule is wireless devices, which have a 'w' designation:

sr-w#####

So, a wired computer with a complete barcode of: 3 934500 000318 0, would have a sr-00318 hostname. All characters are lowercase.
