Software Licenses
In SISSA you can use several types of software: operating systems, scientific software (SW), compilers and libraries.
Some SW is free: on the Linux Workstations you can find the most common scientific and graphic SW (pgplot, SW to burn cdrom, etc.). Some SW needs a license: the licenses are managed by Linux or Windows servers.
All the following SW, but Windows o.s., Office and the Antivirus ones, are available only if you are working inside the SISSA network.
