MATLAB Old

From early August 2014 the University has a new MATLAB site licence. For everything to do with MATLAB go to the University's MATLAB Web pages at
http://www.it.ox.ac.uk/news/matlab

The information on the pre-August 2014 MATLAB site licence will become valid if/when the University uses that site licence in the future.

You may obtain MATLAB kits from \\LOCALKITS.physics.ox.ac.uk\OxKits_MATLAB\ on the Physics Network System using the instructions for obtaining kits.

MATLAB may be used on any University-owned system connected to the main University network. Standalone licences may be used on any University-owned system when not connected to the University network.

Undergraduate and postgraduate students can obtain free standalone MATLAB kits and licences ( Details of Student Licences ) for use on their personal systems.

A MATLAB licence is needed and requires authentication with your Physics-wide network account.

Information is available from OUCS on MATLAB licensing, the operation of the concurrent licence server and details of the current numbers of toolbox licences.

Instructions on how to obtain standalone MATLAB and MATLAB toolbox licences are available.

There are some outline installation instructions for MATLAB 7.5 and before and for MATLAB 7.6 and later which may be useful for new users.

WARNING! MATLAB 7.8/2009a for Mac OS X only works on 10.5.5 and later.

Octave from GNU is a similar free product and mostly compatible with MATLAB.

A NAG Toolbox for MATLAB is available for download from NAG.
