Matlab now available for WSU student home use!

Using funds provided through the collection of the Student Technology Fee, College of Engineering and Computer Science students who have paid the fee can now install Matlab on their personally owned computers at no cost. This is the full version of Matlab, not a “student version.”

( Matlab student licensing. )

IEEE Explore It's new! It's out! Some quick search advice and notes:
  • previously saved search alerts will need to be re-established
  • the "big search box" searches metadata, abstracts, title, and author; you MUST use the advanced search to search through the article full-text
  • multiple keywords are AND'd; the old search engine phrased multiple keywords
  • searches now include: auto-plurals, auto all-verb-tenses, auto British+American spellings, auto with-without hyphens searched
  • article references: internally linked if IEEE; display OLINKS Find-It icon if not
  • pre-pub articles now easier to find: browse transaction titles; select EARLY ACCESS; or use facet
  • author's names are not normalized: search author surname first, then use facet to limit
  • only the affiliation of the article's primary author can be searched in the affiliation search modes
  • MeSH headings have been added to publications with biomedical/medical foci
  • Added a publication quick search - find an item when you know part of the citation - see tab in advanced options
  • If you know a standard number: use browse mode, select standard publication type, search by the number (e.g.: 802.11)
  • Multimedia files presented at conferences are now attached (as zip files) at the article summary level
  • eBooks have been added; searchable at the TOC level; WSU DOES NOT HAVE ACCESS TO IEEE eBOOK CONTENT
