Update on Matters • (PC) Labs • new labs refurbished, seem to be working • opening of Cyb and EE labs for PC use (when not for proper labs): not needed to do so yet • MATLAB • research licenses bought, but project proposals to use MATLAB should include money for it • Common Room • your views on its usage have been sought SITTC Report
Budget 2003/4 • SITTC budget phased (spending per month) • Seem spending about what was planned • Contingency money largely in tact • Plan: • for next SITTC meeting, draw up wish list 2004/5 • some items will be bought from contingency • thus let your reps know of any needs • NB will need more staff PCs next year than this • Some equipment possible repairable if had appropriate bod – cheaper than buying new?
