Bangalore, August 8, 2012: MATLAB Eexpo, the third annual user conference hosted by MathWorks, the developer of mathematical computing software, concluded yesterday in Bangalore. An audience of over 700 Indian design engineers from the automotive, aerospace and defence, computers, electronics and semiconductors (CES), industrial automation and machinery, and technology services industries participated in the day-long event. MathWorks technical experts from India and overseas presented recently introduced capabilities of MATLAB and Simulink in the areas of data analysis and processing, system modeling and simulation, and implementation and verification.

Dr Sameer Prabhu, director of industry marketing at MathWorks (pictured), delivered the keynote address entitled ‘Getting to Smart’, which demonstrated how companies and universities around the world are taking smarter approaches to developing systems, making discoveries and learning with MATLAB and Simulink. He said, “In the present era of rapid technology obsolescence, there is heightened emphasis on shifting to easier, faster and smarter ways of achieving desired outcomes. While engineers and scientists strive for this, they are often unsure how to get there. MATLAB and Simulink empower users to make optimum use of newer computing hardware, modelling and simulation, and globally dispersed teams to achieve smarter outcomes.”

Customer presentations included one by General Motors’ Technical Center India on Utilisation of Simulink verification and validation and Simulink Design Verifier for HVAC Controls Software, Moog India Technology Center’s Automated Model-Based Requirement Coverage Analysis Tool, and others by Mahindra & Mahindra and Eaton Technologies.
