Hi Wen,
I was in contact with Altera this week with some of the same questions, and here is what I know:
- The license is generated using your computer's MAC address. It's intended for use on one computer.
- It's a perpetual license, so you can use it forever
- There is a 60-day trial that you can get by contacting them
- The full price for the AOCL SDK license from Altera is US$995. I asked Terasic about that OpenCL bundle you linked to, but they don't allow you to buy the bundle from them unless you buy the $8000 DE5-Net. For the DE1-SoC, you have to get the license from Altera.
- You don't need a paid Quartus Prime Standard/Pro license to use the AOCL SDK. It works fine with Quartus Prime Lite Edition (the free version)
Hope this helps! If you find out that there is special pricing for academic use, please let me know too. I'm currently on the 60-day trial and I'm a student too, so if there is a academic discount that would help me out alot.
