What are MANs for?
The MANs provide Scotland’s universities, colleges and research institutions with a computer network that is second to none in the world. This means that ordinary computer activities are easier to carry out – email, internet access, file sharing all work fast and reliably. Internet facilities can be used routinely during teaching, and other novel uses are being investigated, including including use of workstation clusters for parallel computing, an online version of a magazine with musical examples, and many more. More information on how the MANs are being used is available at the Projects section of this website.
