MATLAB toolboxes are professionally developed, rigorously tested, and fully documented. The app lets you see how different algorithms work with your data. Iterate until you’ve got the results you want, then automatically generate a MAT LAB for Windows program to reproduce or automate your work.
Scale your analyses to run on clusters, GPUs, and clouds with only minor code changes. There’s no need to rewrite your code or learn big data programming and out-of-memory techniques.
MATLAB code is production-ready, so you can go directly to your cloud and enterprise systems, and integrate with data sources and business systems. Automatically convert algorithms to C/C++, HDL, and CUDA code to run on your embedded processor or FPGA/ASIC.
It works with Simulink to support Model-Based Design, which is used for multidomain simulation, automatic code generation, and test and verification of embedded systems.
