UniSA Total Academic Headcount (TAH) license is an annual license that should renewed annually in December or January to keep using the MATLAB software.
If you are using a UniSA managed computer with network license for MATLAB, your license will be updated for you automatically.
If you are using MATLAB on personally owned computer or have installed it using the standalone license key, you will need to update your license file each year using one of the following methods:
Update Current License
Re-Activate License after it has expired
