Question (one)!

All very good questions, for which I have no answers.

I've been on this "Lab Compute Modernisation Working Group" as our PMC+ENG academic rep., and have been asking closely related questions for months. We've been shown a video and a basic demo of the interface (Windows-only), but it remains unclear if the final product (for Sem-1 2024) will be a stand-alone desktop and mobile app., or used from within a browser. Similarly unclear, which applications run in-the-cloud with their output directed to this interface, or how many/which are downloaded to your device and run on its CPU, and how teaching staff can add/upgrade software and data. These are, of course, common, world-wide activities addressed everywhere, so we're unclear why we can't receive answers. Next meeting, Nov 14th.

But there is an email address to which you should send your questions: [email protected]
