i ABSTRACT This thesis introduces the Model-Based Development of Multi-iRobot Toolbox (MBDMIRT), a Simulink-based toolbox designed to provide the means to acquire and practice the Model-Based Development (MBD) skills necessary to design real-time embedded system. The MBDMIRT toolbox runs under MATLAB/Simulink to simulate the movements of multiple iRobots and to control, after verification by si...

SUMMARY ERNEST Reaction Network Equilibria Study Toolbox is a MATLAB package which, by checking various different criteria on the structure of a chemical reaction network, can exclude the multistationarity of the corresponding reaction system. The results obtained are independent of the rate constants of the reactions, and can be used for model discrimination. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION ...

This work has been carried out to demonstrate the performances of four different state space models in the model predictive control system of a reactive distillation process that was used for the production of ethyl acetate. The state space models of the reactive distillation process were developed with the aid of System Identification Toolbox of MATLAB using the data acquired from the reactive...

In this work, a new approach is proposed to control the manipulators for Humanoid robot. The kinematics of the manipulators in terms of joint positions, velocity, acceleration and torque of each joint is computed using the Denavit Hardenberg (D-H) notations. These variables are used to design the manipulator control system, which has been proposed in this work. In view of supporting the develop...

The paper presents several possibilities of remote control of experiments. One direction of the research is devoted to the use of Matlab software environment. There are number of ways how to approach Matlab remotely. They include e.g. Matlab S-function, COM, DDE, shared communication file or Virtual Reality Toolbox. One of these proposed concepts was used and tested for control of the inverted ...

MATLAB/Simulink is a popular software environment used by engineers and scientists. It offers integrated modeling and simulation tools and numerous toolboxes employable in conjunction with modeling and simulation tasks. However, modeling and simulation of discrete event systems is often confusing and sometimes not compliant with the established system theory. This contribution presents a MATLAB...

The recently developed PERIODIC SYSTEMS Toolbox for MATLAB is described. The basic approach to develop this toolbox was to exploit the powerful object manipulation features of MATLAB via flexible and functionally rich high level m-functions, while simultaneously enforcing highly efficient and numerically sound computations via the mex-function technology of MATLAB to solve critical numerical pr...

This article is the first in a three part series describing techniques and methods for using MATLAB as an executable specification for hardware development. MATLAB, the defacto industry standard for DSP algorithm development, includes abstractions such as complex numbers, matrix operations, built-in and toolbox libraries of DSP functions and waveform analysis that make this language highly usef...
