https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-oneAPI-Math-Kernel-Library/MKL-licensing-on-a-cluster/m-p/929982#M13664 <P>Hi,</P> <P>We are setting up a small computational cluster with 96 cores (with hyperthreading), and would like to use the MKL libraries for enhanced performance. The cluster will be used by a research team of 4 people, which will probably grow to a maximum of 10.</P> <P>How do we need to license the MKL libraries? If we want to run the cluster at full capacity, do we need to buy 192 MKL licenses (one per thread running in the cluster)? Or are there any other possibilities?</P> <P>Thanks in advance!</P> Thu, 05 Dec 2013 23:43:57 GMT GB 2013-12-05T23:43:57Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-oneAPI-Math-Kernel-Library/MKL-licensing-on-a-cluster/m-p/929982#M13664 <P>Hi,</P> <P>We are setting up a small computational cluster with 96 cores (with hyperthreading), and would like to use the MKL libraries for enhanced performance.
