Next Steps Resolve Budget Overage Locations in Question Finalize Building Priorities Identifying kiosks as an UTFAB project Kiosk System Policies
Next Steps Resolve Budget Overage Reduce Scope of Project –Eliminate some buildings & re-prioritize –Eliminate some kiosks & re-priorit-ze Increase Budget Allocation –by $10K to cover current costs –by $15K to accommodate potential location changes
Next Steps Locations in Question –Physiology replacing Pathology –Change of location in Wagar –Change of location in Engr (Physics) Have not heard about –NESB –Shepardson –Visual Arts Potential for –change in telecomm & counter costs –delay in installation Decision –bring all changes back to UTFAB –allow the location crew to make final choice (Jason Huitt, Mark Ritschard, Scott Baily, Jim White)
Next Steps Finalize Building Priorities Lory Student Center Clark A Wing Engineering (main auditorium foyer) Clark C Wing Engineering (Physics Entrance)* Wagar* Weber Chemistry Natural Resources Education Physiology* Yates Gifford Sheperdson* Natural & Environmental Sciences (NESB)* Visual Arts*
Next Steps Identifying kiosks as an UTFAB project and a grant from Sun –Banner above the kiosks? –Leetle stickers on ‘em? –Desktop credits?
Next Steps Kiosk System Policies –No authentication (log on) –Home Page (currently CSU) –no USB support (because of no auth) –Kiosk management & LSC –Users agreeing to be nice? (aka agree-to-this-stuff-before-you-get-to-use-this-thing)
Future Possibilities Authentication –Using eID –Local user space (activates USB) –Smart cards useful for all
