"Faculty management in the Faculty of Computing-UTM is changed. They ask me to re-locate the PingER server from the faculty server room as students are not allowed for physical access of the server room. Only faculty members are allowed to physically manage the servers in the server room. Therefore, I asked my supervisor (Dr Md Asri Ngadi/ Prof Hanan) from UTM to take the responsibility of the server. He is agreed, however, I have to manage the server remotely. Further, he needs an official invitation from your side to fulfill the official requirements. Further, he wants to make this project as a source of an international collaboration and linkages between UTM and SLAC-Stanford."
