MATLAB R2015 pre-release

Posted by Software @ Penn State | 02.19.2015

R2015 is expected to be released in March 2015.  If you are a current Matlab user upcoming changes for platform support may impact you.  R2015b will be the last release of the 32-bit version of MATLAB for Windows. MathWorks releases subsequent to R2015b will not be available for the 32-bit Windows operating system. To use releases after R2015b, impacted users are advised to migrate to 64-bit Windows at this time. They can continue to use releases up through R2015b. MathWorks technical support engineers will continue to provide support for those releases on 32-bit Windows.
