- | There is a very important change to CMC tool use for education that was recently made. | ||
- | If you look at the subscription types on this page: | ||
- | </ | ||
- | < | ||
- | There are three new subscription types. | ||
- | When faculty renew their existing subscriptions with CMC, they will be forced | ||
- | to choose one of the three new subscriptions. | ||
- | The " | ||
- | |||
- | Unlimited use of Cadence, Mentor, Synopsys and Xilinx for research use. | ||
- | Other tools capped at five concurrent use instances per tool from the | ||
- | subscriber’s research team. E.g., 5 concurrent use instances of ANSYS; | ||
- | or 2 concurrent use instances of COMSOL + 1 Tanner + 5 ANSYS are both | ||
- | valid use cases. | ||
- | Additional access to CAD for research use can be purchased - $1000 for | ||
- | five additional concurrent user instances per tool. | ||
- | *** DOES NOT INCLUDE EDUCATION USE OF ANY TOOLS <-- VERY IMPORTANT *** | ||
- | |||
- | Next is the " | ||
- | professor to be included/ | ||
- | education use. Like before, education use is permitted. | ||
- | following: Unlimited education course use of ANSYS, Cadence, Keysight ADS, Mentor | ||
- | Graphics, and Synopsys. Licenses provided based on student enrollment per course. | ||
- | | ||
- | Finally, you have the " | ||
- | education use. This clearly doesn' | ||
- | |||
- | It makes sense for the Department to buy into the Institution/ | ||
- | license ($5000/ | ||
- | | ||
- | $1000 for access to as many tools as they like sounds pretty good. However, | ||
- | it's not clear who would pay the $5000. | ||
- | who are CMC subscribers as well. Would it make sense for Lassonde to pay | ||
- | the $5000 fee? I want to avoid both Lassonde *and* the Department paying | ||
- | the $5000 fee simply because people don't talk. | ||
- | |||
- | Anyway, I'm pointing this out well in advance of the beginning of the school year. | ||
- | I don't want there to be surprises when a faculty member states that they want | ||
- | to use the tools in their course, but they don't have the proper subscription. | ||
- | It would be good to sign up for the Institution/ | ||
