After logging into the ePayment system with your student IDs and Campus Wide E-mail System (CWEM) passwords, a full list of debit items, including amount and status of payment will be displayed. Registered PPS users could then make payments through the Internet on or before the due date, providing unprecedented convenience.
To maximize security, the ePayment system adopts Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) 128-bit encryption for data transfer to ensure secure flow of information.

3. An alternative Chinese Input Method - CKC 2002 |
 |
Coded with numbers, CKC is an easy-to-use Chinese Input System as users are only required to learn a few rules before using it. With its short learning curve which significantly increases efficiency, CKC has soon became popular after launching in China five years ago.
We have organized a site license programme for CKC 2002 Traditional Chinese version, which can be installed on Traditional Chinese Windows (98/ME/2000/XP) and Windows XP platforms. Besides PCs owned by the University, the license is also extended to the personal computers of University staff and students. CKC 2002 is also installed on all PCs of our User Areas (1/F Pi Ch'iu Building and Room 103 Wong Foo Yuan Building).

7. Behind the Scenes : Software Site License - from Pains to Gains |
 |
Ever since computers entered the workplace, the increasingly complex software licensing issues have become very much a headache for users.
"There are a variety of licensing models adopted by software suppliers," explains Roger So from Microcomputer Application Support Section. "Some software is licensed to each individual computer while others are licensed according to the number of concurrent users, and some may even be licensed on per-CPU basis."
What complicates the matter further is the fact that some software may consist of a range of sub-products - each of which is licensed separately. So the purchaser/user has to read and comply with the licensing agreements.
For a widely used software, the availability of a site license can save a great deal of collective time, effort and expense for the University.
