Introduction to Simulink

Covers the basics of using Simulink, an interactive, graphical environment used to model and simulate dynamic systems. Explores all aspects of system modeling with Simulink, including creating a model, simulating the system, and analyzing the results. Demonstrates how to design your own algorithms and blocks. Explains the use of MathWorks blocksets and extensions, such as the Dials and Gauges Blockset, Stateflow, the DSP Blockset, the Communications Blockset, and xPC Target. Offered together with Mathworks www.mathworks.com.
