Research Path

\\wolftech\research\<unit>\

<unit> -- refers to those hosting the fileserver/storage Initial units would be:

• ece
• bme
• itecs
• cnr

Units will then need to identify the layout underneath the \<unit>\ level. We need to identify two initial breakdowns to start with. Suggestions include:

\\wolftech\research\<unit>\<subunit>\

• where <subunit> is a department

\\wolftech\research\<unit>\<unityID>\

• where <unityID> is the facultyID

\\wolftech\research\<unit>\<projectID>\

• where <unityID> is an identifier for the individual projects. These would need to be readable... perhaps including the sponsor name, and a faculty suggested 'short' project name (which we'd have them enter when requesting the space initially).

\\wolftech\research\ece\darpa_laserscope\ for example.
