Since 1.1.2018 the university owns a Matlab campus contract. Everybody is now free to use Matlab on our integrated machine, on her/his personal laptop or at home. This includes changes in the usage policy.
On our integrated machines you can still use our network license server (just start "matlab").
For all other devices, licenses are only available as personal node locked licenses. Follow the HRZ documentation [1] , how to set this up. Support is only available from the HRZ.
