Trials and licensing

Trials

If you want to trial or evaluate any of the tools, request an evaluation license.

Note: You do not need to install Arm License Server if you are trialing the tools with an evaluation license.

Licensing  - Arm Licence Server

If you have purchased a floating license for one or more of the Arm HPC tools, you must download, install, and run Arm Licence Server before running your licensed Arm tool.

For more information about how to do this, see Arm Licence Server.

Future architectures - Scalable Vector Extension (SVE and SVE2)

Learn more about the SVE and SVE2 Arm architectural features

Adapt your code for SVE-enabled targets, compile it with Arm Compiler for Linux, then run and analyze the code on non-SVE platforms using Arm Instruction Emulator.
