I’ve been working at for almost a decade and will be leaving at the end of this week! A huge part of my job was to support a major subset of Manchester’s site licensed application software portfolio so naturally I’ve made use of a lot of it over the years.

As of February 20th, I will no longer be entitled to use any of it! This article is the second in a series where I’ll look at some of the software that’s become important to me and what my options are on leaving Manchester.

Here, I consider – a technical computing environment that has come to dominate my career at Manchester. For the last 10 years, I’ve used MATLAB at least every week, if not most days. Would You Like To Activate Postfix In /etc/mail/mailer.conf N. I had a standalone license for MATLAB and several toolboxes – Simulink, Image Processing, Parallel Computing, Statistics and Optimization. Now, I’ve got nothing!

Unfortunately for me, I’ve also got hundreds of scripts, mex files and a few Simulink models that I can no longer run! These are my options: Go somewhere else that has a MATLAB site license • I’ll soon be joining the who have a MATLAB site license. A great option if you can do it. Use something else • – Octave is a pretty good free and open source clone of MATLAB and quite a few of my programs would work without modification. Others would require some rewriting and, in some cases, that rewriting could be extensive! There is no Simulink support.
