Information Processing Center
Aizu Region and Community
一般・地域
The Information Processing Center (IPC) builds and maintains the university's networks. It also maintains its UNIX and other workstations and free software such as GNU as well as commercial software that are used for educational/research purposes, and responds to security threats such as unauthorized access. Further, it fully supports various systems such as the university's core Academic Administration System, the library management system, and learning management systems (LMSs). Network devices and classroom computers are replaced every four to five years to assure they are always up to date.
In addition, a System Support Base (SSB) located in the Research Quadrangles responds to issues such as software and hardware failures and various technical enquiries. The IPC operates based on the following principles.
Continuously Upgradable Open Architecture
We must be able to keep up with technological developments in computer software and hardware, their elements, and additional features.
International De Facto Standards
By using the international de facto standards, we aim to make extensive international software resources easily available, and make knowledge obtained through this system and research achievements internationally accessible even from outside the university.
Network Global Architecture
We aim to make every computer resource in the systems managed by the IPC accessible from any location.
