unfortunately my users are not that organized. It's hard to even convince them
to use batch processing and not doing everything manually in a bunch of open
Matlab windows. They're unable to tell exactly, which data they need
to do a certain computation. This is why I need them to have direct access
to their projects' data residing on NFS-fileservers.
