Access Grid Video Conferencing

There are several options available for video conferencing within the Oxford e-Research Centre. We have two Access Grid (AG) rooms available, one based in the e-Science Building, which is the biggest of its kind within the University, and another based at Begbroke Science Park. These enable multi-site desktop video conferencing using InSORS software and will also allow participation in H323 and VRVS video conference meetings.

Registering for Services

To use grid resources within Oxford or anywhere you will first need a digital certificate. Once you have this you will be able to regester to any service of your choice.
