Computing
Participants can use their own laptops on site, but are subject to the KEK/J-PARC computer security rules.
A wireless network "eduroam" (http://www.eduroam.org/) is available in the large area of the Tsukuba campus in KEK. This network provides does not have access to KEK internal network, but access to internet. Participants can apply for an account for the duration of the school. For those who already have an eduroam account in thier home institute may connect this network without any application. For those who belongs to the participating institution of the eduroam project, one may apply for an accout in her/his home institute. This is recommended since the eduroam account is valid not only in KEK, but also for all otherparticipating institutions in the world.
Prior to network connection, all computers must run an operating system with up-to-date patches and an anti-virus software to protect virus with current virus signatures. Use of peer-to-peer software is strictly forbidden. Network activities on campus is monitored all the time. Connections may be blocked if suspicious actions are identified.
More detailed information on computer security at KEK, including how to apply for an eduroam for wireless connection will be made available to students once they are accepted.
