Shared Computing Environment
The dream group has a shared computing environment on top of the DICE system used by all of informatics. To get access to this, you need to fill out a support form, asking to be added to the unix and AFS group "dreamers". Our environment includes a shared filespace with various tools we all use to make our lives easier and more efficient. In particular, note that we have a shared bibtex which contains useful paper as well as our own paper - make sure you help keep it up to date.
Shared Webserver
We have a shared dream group webserver (you're looking at it!) should make your project a webpage here with at least the name of the project a brief outline and who is involved.
