nology companies, and government labs use MATLAB and Simulink to solve their most challenging technical computing problems. With MATLAB & Simulink Student Version, students can use the same tools to complete their course work. Student Version Release 2009a includes MATLAB 7.8 and Simulink 7.3, plus seven full-featured add-on products that provide a more powerful teaching and learning resource for advanced courses. MATLAB 7.8 MATLAB is a high-level technical computing language and interactive environment for algorithm development, data visualization, data analysis, and numeric computation. Using MATLAB, you can solve technical computing problems faster than with traditional programming languages. You can integrate your MATLAB code with other languages and applications. Key Features Development environment for managing code, files, and data Interactive tools for iterative exploration, design, and problem solving Mathematical functions for linear algebra, statistics, Fourier analysis, filtering, optimization, and numerical integration 2-D and 3-D graphics functions for visualizing data Tools for building custom graphical user interfaces Functions for integrating MATLAB based algorithms with external applica tions and languages, such as C, C++, Fortran, Java, COM, and Microsoft Excel Object-oriented programming for rapid application development without engaging in low-level housekeeping tasks Generation of Simulink blocks from symbolic math expressions in Symbolic Math Toolbox Accelerating the pace of engineering and science Simulink 7.3 Simulink is a platform for multidomain simulation and Model-Based Design of dynamic systems. It provides an interactive graphical environment and a customizable set of block libraries that let you accurately design, simulate, implement, and test con trol, signal processing, communications, and other dynamic systems. In Student Version, models can contain up to 1,000 blocks. Key Features Extensive and expandable libraries of predefined blocks Interactive graphical editor for assembling and managing intuitive block diagrams Ability to manage complex designs by segmenting models into hierarchies of design components Model Explorer to navigate, create, con figure, and search all signals, parameters, and properties of your model Embedded MATLAB Function blocks for bringing MATLAB algorithms into Simulink Accelerated simulation modes for run ning simulations interpretively or at compiled C code speeds using fixed- or variable-step solvers Graphical debugger to examine simu lation results and diagnose unexpected behavior in your design Full access to MATLAB for analyz ing and visualizing data, developing graphical user interfaces, and creating model data and parameters S T UDE NT VE RS I ON The most widely used tool for engineering and science MATLAB development environment. You can develop algorithms, interactively analyze data, view data files, and manage projects.
