This course offers a basic introduction to Mac OS X, the latest version of the Mac operating system. It also gives an overview of some of the more advanced functions offered by the operating system, and the core applications, which both an office or PWF user would find useful to use e.g. Microsoft Word.
This is a Mac Pro Video tutorial on Mac OS. The DVD can be used on both Macs (although advertised as being usable under Windows, we have had no success in doing so).
A set of 2-hour tutorials on CD-ROMs on Macintosh System OS X. As exercises are not provided, it is not necessary to have this version of the system installed.
Over the course of your PhD research you will find and generate huge volumes of information, and staying on top of it all can be problematic. This workshop is designed to help you think about how you work, and to find tools and practical strategies that will work for you in storing, retrieving, managing and using information.

Mathematica is a software package for numerical computation, symbolic manipulation and the production of graphics from mathematical functions and data. This course examines Mathematica's graphical capabilities in more detail than the "Mathematica: Basics" course.
This course is part of the Scientific Computing series.
This course will cover using Mathematica for simple numerical programming, concentrating on linear algebra. It will indicate how it can be used for more advanced work, but not attempt to teach the details. The emphasis will be more on teaching what can be done than on teaching rules for how to do specific tasks.
This course is part of the Scientific Computing series.
This course will cover using Mathematica for symbolic calculations (i.e. ones operating on formulae and not just numbers), concentrating on linear algebra. It will show how to use this to get first and higher order approximations to some linear algebra problems. It will indicate how it can be used for other such work, but not attempt to teach the details. The emphasis will be more on teaching what can be done than on teaching rules for how to do specific tasks.
Attendees should note that this is one of the most advanced courses on scientific computation given in the University, by any department, and is not suitable for inexperienced programmers.
Matlab is a software package for numerical computation with high quality graphics facilities. This course is for beginners and new users of the package and describes basic concepts and use of Matlab, but not any other optional 'Toolboxes' available from the developers of MATLAB.
