At the end of May this year, the United States listed 33 China companies and institutions? Entity list? They were forbidden to use the products and technologies of American companies, and the teachers and students of Harbin Institute of Technology and Harbin Institute of Technology soon found that the purchased Matlab commercial mathematics software could not be used. MathWorks, which belongs to Matlab, also confirmed that they need to abide by the regulations of the US government and can no longer provide genuine software licenses to teachers and students of Harbin Institute of Technology and Harbin Institute of Technology. Now, when participating in the 2020 National Mathematical Modeling Competition for College Students, the students of Harbin Institute of Technology are embarrassed to find that they can no longer use MatLab, but the teams of other universities can use it normally.

In fact, as early as 17 June, that is, the United States included Harbin Institute of Technology? Entity list? A few days later, Harbin Institute of Technology also issued an admission notice without restricting the use of software. What's even more embarrassing is that MathWorks is also one of the sponsors of this competition! On the one hand, sponsorship, on the other hand, prohibition of use.

Now the organizing Committee of the contest has clearly told the team of Harbin Institute of Technology not to use MatLab. Going to the competition in this way means that everyone else is a computer, and the students of Harbin Institute of Technology only have abacus.

Why Harbin Institute of Technology? Behind this incident is the impact of the US ban. At the end of May this year, the United States listed 33 China companies and institutions? Entity list? They are prohibited from using the products and technologies of American companies, including Harbin Institute of Technology. Shortly after joining the list, not only Harbin Institute of Technology, but also teachers and students of Harbin Institute of Technology found that they could not use the purchased MATLAB software. In this regard, MathWorks, which belongs to MATLAB, also confirmed that they need to abide by the regulations of the US government and can no longer provide genuine software licenses to teachers and students of Harbin Institute of Technology and Harbin Institute of Technology.

It is understood that the national mathematical modeling competition for college students is claimed to be the largest mathematical modeling competition in the world, which can be said to be? Once you enter the competition, you will benefit for life? . In this competition, the utilization rate of MATLAB has always been the highest, and more than 95% teams will use it. For the contestants, using MATLAB can help them save a lot of time in the 72-hour continuous competition.
