Scilab -Available under GNU/Linux, Windows and Mac OS X, Scilab is an interactive platform for numerical computation providing a powerful computing environment for engineering and scientific applications.

Scilab includes hundreds of mathematical functions. It has a high level programming language allowing access to advanced data structures, 2-D and 3-D graphical functions.

A large number of functionalities is included in Scilab: control, simulation, optimization, signal processing… Xcos, the hybrid dynamic systems modeler and simulator is provided with the platform.

Gathering both industrial needs and scientific advances, Scilab covers a wide spectrum of areas: aerospace, automotive, energy, defense, finance, chemistry, biology, medicine…

Scilab can be used as a tool for teaching and learning mathematics. Students can work independently and responsibly while learning mathematical concepts. Freely available at school or at home, the use of Scilab by students and teachers is favored.

New in This Release:

-During diagram edition, menu and buttons are now (de)activated according to the user actions (for example, actions related to blocks are only made available when at least one block is selected),
-Simulation is now faster under Linux with a major bug fixed in the HDF5 library which made simulation time consuming for big diagrams,
-Superblocks masks are now managed.
-”Find & Replace” window has been totally rewritten and improved in Scilab Editor.
-ATOMS now accepts local repositories. Updating a module from ATOMS graphical user interface is effective.
-Finally, the export of figures containing Latex/MathML formulae is possible.
