Hewlett-Packard licensed software

Hewlett-Packard: Campuswide Software License Grant (CSLG) products

The School of Computer Science participates in the Campuswide Software License Grant (CSLG) Program under which CMU obtains licenses for a variety of products for Tru64 Unix and OpenVMS. Computer Science purchases the April PAKs when it renews this agreement, and other sets as needed. Compaq issues new PAKs four times a year: April, July, October and January.

The product collections change each quarter. The list is available on the CSLG program web pages. If you need products or upgrades that appear on later CSLG lists, email help+license@cs.cmu.edu, and Computer Science will consider purchasing newer PAKs and media for layered products. Note: There may be a charge to your department associated with this purchase.
