Abstract

SIMULINK was recently introduced in the Systems Engineering major at the United States Naval Academy. SIMULINK is an environment for simulating linear/nonlinear dynamic systems. As an addition to MATLAB, SIMULINK extends MATLAB to include many features specific to the modeling and simulation of dynamic systems. SIMULINK has the same system requirements as MATLAB. SIMULINK also requires Microsoft Windows version 3.0 and supports only 386 enhanced mode. Microsoft Windows provides the graphics for SIMULINK and the 386 mode gives it the speed and memory required
