Vagrant

Vagrant is an open source tool for creating, configuring and distributing virtual development environments. It is often described as a wrapper around other virtualisation software such as Virtualbox and VMware, and around configuration management software such as Ansible, Puppet, Chef and salt.

Vagrant provides a workflow that focuses on automation to reduce the set-up time for development environments and multiple virtual machines. It allows for source control of setup files, is highly portable, and can be used to try a wide variety of platforms, quickly.

The £10million Centre for Doctoral Training was launched in November 2013 and is jointly funded by EPSRC, the University of Southampton, and its partners.

The NGCM brings together world-class simulation modelling research activities from across the University of Southampton and hosts a 4-year doctoral training programme that is the first of its kind in the UK.

Skyrmionic states in confined nanostructures

Hans Fangohr (Investigator), Marijan Beg

An ever increasing need for data storage creates great challenges for the development of high-capacity storage devices that are cheap, fast, reliable, and robust. Because of the fundamental constraints of today's technologies, further progress requires radically different approaches. Magnetic skyrmions are very promising candidates for the development of future low-power, high-capacity, non-volatile data storage devices.
