About license restriction of commercial applications

About the position of commercial applications available

  Commercial applications installed on TSUBAME are available only to those with IC cards for student/staff ID (students or full-time faculty/staff with employment relationship) under the contract with the software vendor.
However, following applications may be available to users with other statuses if certain conditions are met.
 

ApplicationsStatusNote

Intel oneAPI

NVIDIA HPC SDK

AMD AOCC

All users

These are the software titles listed under "Commercial Applications" on the Supported Applications page that fall under the "Development Environment, Library" category.
Since they are available to all users, no special procedures are required to use them.
Gaussian

All users

This feature is available to all users.
However, due to the transition to a paid service, each user must activate the application via the Application Activation section of the TSUBAME Group on the TSUBAME4 Portal.
AMBER

Individuals affiliated with academic institutions and government agencies

Individuals affiliated with academic institutions or government agencies may use this application even if they are external users. (However, it cannot be used for commercial purposes.)
External users authorized to use this application must activate the application via the Application Activation section of the TSUBAME Group on the TSUBAME4 Portal.
MATLABHolders of Access Cards eligible for preferential billing rates(Limited to academic research at Science Tokyo) Access permissions are granted on a case-by-case basis. Please contact us via the Contact Us page to request access. Use of the application is limited to academic research at Science Tokyo and may not be used for research purposes at other institutions or for industrial applications.

 

About license restriction

 The following restrictions apply to each account when using the application on campus.
(Except for Gaussian and AMBER, which are applications with no limit on the number of concurrent executions.)

 Please do not occupy the number of licenses.
If you are using the application in a laboratory, etc., the license will be consumed even if the application is still running, so please make sure to stop the application after you finish using it.
License usage may be suspended without warning if license occupancy or prolonged use is observed.

 *1 Due to the specifications of the License Manager, it cannot be applied automatically to all user accounts, and there will be a time lag before the restriction takes effect. Therefore, you may be temporarily exempt from the license restrictions.
