MatLab users with an existing license and a current maintenance agreement will have their license(s) 'stored or suspended' to protect their initial investment in the event that the University decides to change the MatLab license model in the future. If you have toolboxes not included in the University at Albany’s MatLab TAH license, they will become child licenses to the campus license.  You will renew these child licenses per your regular maintenance schedule with MathWorks.
