Acceptable Use
Policy
The Funding Councils' expectations in
relation to the use of studios are as follows:
The facilities
-
are to be available first and foremost
for videoconferencing
-
are to be booked only via the JANET
Videoconferencing Service (JVCS) Booking Service
-
must pass regular JVCS Quality
Assurance Acceptance tests
Equipment is being provided on the
understanding that these expectations will be met.
If the studios are being booked for a
purpose other than videoconferencing they must still be booked
via the JVCS Booking Service, and should be shown as unavailable.
This ensures that no facilities are double-booked. The JVCS
Booking Service is web-based and is not integrated into any
institutional room booking systems.
When using any of the JANET services,
including the JVCS for multipoint videoconferences, institutions will have to
abide by the JANET Acceptable Use Policy
http://www.ja.net/services/publications/policy/aup.html (as they do with all current
JANET services).
