Virtualization and the Cloud
Submitted by Sameer Verma on Mon, 03/11/2013 - 09:44Our students get some exposure to the tools and techniques from the field, but they do not get enough.

Why? A common question.
Submitted by Sameer Verma on Fri, 09/14/2012 - 09:48Software Freedom Day 2012 was a success! A lot of fun and education for the campus community. We handed out over 100 CDs of Free and Open Source Software. If you missed out, you can head over to valo-cd.net for software titles for Windows, or opensourcemac.org for MacOSX software.
All the software is free to use for any purpose you see fit - no limitations such as "Academic use only".
