16 <        During the "project week" coding has got well underway,
17 <        although mostly in the experimental stage. Planning and
18 <        design decisions are still being made, along with various
19 <        specification documents. Detailed information can usually
20 <        be found in the meeting minutes. Code is viewable via CVS
21 <        to UKC users only.
16 >        All i-scream components are now functioning to initial
17 >        design parameters and our system is regarded to be complete.
18 >        Documentation is available to assist third party programmers
19 >        in producing Hosts for use with the i-scream server.
20 >        Our progress during the project can be found in the meeting minutes.

25 +        The i-scream Distributed Central Monitoring System <a href="http://raptor.ukc.ac.uk/~pjm2/reports">Reports</a>
26 +        are now visible on the web.  You may view the latest information
27 +        about each machine, historical 24-hour reports and alerts for
28 +        each machine.  Please remember that this is work in progress
29 +        still, so the only data currently viewable is our own data that
30 +        has been harvested by our own testing.  Also note that historical
31 +        reports are only available for periods during which our server
32 +        was running.
33 +       </p>
34 +
35 +       <p align="justify">
36 +        Our current host development allows us to pass machine statistics
37 +        to our distributed filter arrangement, which then processes the
38 +        data and stores it for later use.  An example of such use is the
39 +        historical report generator which produces graphs of machine
40 +        usage over periods of time.  A real-time
41 +        client is also available (Conient) and alert information can be
42 +        displayed to the public via dynamic web pages.
43 +       </p>
44 +      
45 +       <p align="justify">
46 +        Builds of the i-scream Distributed Central Monitoring System
47 +        are now available for <a href="/builds/">download</a> from this
48 +        website. These are still very much in development and should
49 +        only be used by people who have been in communication with the
50 +        development team. Please email us if you wish to use any i-scream
51 +        software, as we are interested to know who is using it and we may
52 +        be able to help you out with any problems you encounter.

59 <        On Monday 16th and Tuesday 17th October all members of the group made presentations to various groups of peers.
59 >        The project deadline was 4pm on 29 March 2001. Most of the group
60 >        met very early that morning to compile the project into five
61 >        lever arch folders. The project, consisting of source code, user,
62 >        maintenance and other documents, was handed in at 3pm.  The CVS
63 >        repository was tagged to signify the project's completion, however,
64 >        development and enhancements to the system shall be continued
65 >        in the near future.

69 >        As can be seen in the "problem domain" document, the project
70 >        was aimed at the UKC Computer Science department, and as such
71 >        we believe a demonstration to the "customer" is important. The
72 >        feedback from our demonstation was more positive than we had
73 >        anticipated. We believe that our project may now be of great
74 >        interest to anybody who wishes to monitor a number of machines
75 >        on their network using a central configuration.
