Silicon Graphics' MineSet
Available to Varsity Members
----------------------------

MineSet(TM) version 1.1 is the second release of SGI's product for
data mining and exploratory data analysis. MineSet integrates tools
for data access, transformations, analytical data mining, and visual
data mining. See http://www.sgi.com/Products/software/MineSet for
more information.

In addition to 30-day free evaluation copies available to any site,
with the new release of SGI's Varsity program CDs (happening now),
varsity members can get PERMANENT MineSet licenses.

Any educational institution is eligible. To qualify, the institution
must have an infrastructure capable of handling technical software
support for its Silicon Graphics users who have purchased Varsity
Program software packages. THE VARSITY PROGRAM AGREEMENT MUST BE
COMPLETED AND SIGNED BY THE INSTITUTION AND APPROVED BY SILICON
GRAPHICS.

The institution buys the right to distribute Varsity Program Developer
Package right-to-use licenses in multiples of 10 or 25. These licenses
are maintained by purchasing yearly support. Thus, the cost of
ownership is significantly reduced in the second year and beyond.

How Does this Work
------------------

SGI Varsity sites will get Varsity CD-ROMs with MineSet or they can
download it directly from
http://www.sgi.com/Products/Evaluation/evaluation.html

To get a permanent license, the site administrator can use the VPX
(varsity ID) number to get a license from
http://www.sgi.com/Products/license.html (click the radio
button for varsity).

See http://www.sgi.com/silicon_campus/varsity.html for
more information about the SGI's varsity program.
