About the use of software on MDAS

It is not prohibited to install software with general user privileges in the MDAS user's area (excluding those with security concerns, etc.). You can use any software that can be installed yourself.

If you have a request to install software that is expected to be used by many users, or software that users cannot install themselves, please contact ADC and we will consider it. When contacting us, please provide us with detailed information such as software requirements and how to install it, as this will make it easier for us to consider your request.
