There is a growing number of software packages that can be legally downloaded from the Internet and used in educational and research projects under licenses that involve no costs and few practical restrictions. Primarily, this is open source software. Using an investigation of waves in simulated excitable media as a case study, it is shown that an extensive project, from parallel computer simulations and data visualization stages to the final publication preparation stage, can be carried out completely based on free software. This creates favorable research and educational opportunities in low budget environments.
