That fee is significantly less than standard academic retail. There is a licensing fee to use the software.

Mathematica licenses are available to Cornell students, staff, and faculty. Your Mathematica license includes a license for Alpha Pro, which will allow you to use the Alpha engine with your own data. The current release, Mathematica 12, features a natural language interface with built-in integration with Wolfram Alpha, the manufacturer's online computational engine. For laptops it may not always be possible to access the license server across the network, therefore additional instructions are provided describing how to register yourself on the Wolfram website and activate Mathemtica such that it will work without network connectivity.Mathematica is a highly sophisticated computational software package developed by Wolfram Research. The simplest activation method is to point the software at the university license server .ox.ac.uk but you need to be able to connect to the license server for the software to work and thus you will need to be on the wired Oxford network or connected via VPN if wireless or working remotely. The self installation method offers two different license activation routes.

IT staff installation onto departmental systems (Windows)ĭepartment IT staff can do remote scripted installation of Mathematica onto department-owned Windows computers connected to the wired network upon request via These deployments are configured to use the university license server .ox.ac.uk.(see below) Self installation onto departmental and personal systems (Windows, Mac, Linux)Īny member of the university can download install the software themselves from. Mathematica is large and requires more than 5Gb of space, so before attempting to install the software please check that you have enough space for both the installer and the installation files. (Prior to November 2018 the software was licensed via the Department of Physics) Mathematica is licensed via the Divisional Software Licensing Group and funded through top-slice funding by the MPLS division. Using Mathematica, you can analyze data, develop algorithms, and create models and applications. Mathematica is a high-level language and interactive environment for numerical computation, visualization, and programming.
