The MathWorks Delivers Latest Versions of MATLAB and Simulink
Release 2008b features new capabilities for parallel computing, symbolic math computing, and multidomain system modeling
NATICK, Mass., Oct. 20 -- The MathWorks today introduced Release 2008b (R2008b) of its MATLAB and Simulink product families. R2008b includes new features in MATLAB and Simulink, two new products, 19 major updates, and enhancements to the PolySpace code verification products.
Among the most significant enhancements in this release, The MathWorks introduced the new Simscape language for creating physical modeling components and acausal simulation domains in the Simulink environment. In addition, Parallel Computing Toolbox now enables users to distribute parallel MATLAB applications as standalone executables or software components that can take advantage of computing clusters.
Additional enhancements in R2008b include:
- Symbolic Math Toolbox -- New version provides a new notebook interface for symbolic computation, plus direct access to MuPAD symbolic engine and language from MATLAB.
- Simulink Fixed Point -- New version supports word lengths up to 128 bits for accurate design and simulation, with support for C and HDL code generation.
- SimElectronics -- A new product for modeling and simulating electronic and electromechanical systems in the Simulink environment.
- Econometrics Toolbox -- A new product for economic forecasting and risk management.
- Statistics Toolbox -- New version supports nonlinear mixed-effects models (NLME) used in computational biology and other applications.
The new release is available immediately and is being shipped to customers with current subscriptions to the MathWorks Software Maintenance Service. Additional information on R2008b product updates can be found at www.mathworks.com/R2008b.

NVIDIA Works On CPU Co-Dependency Issues with Kepler GPU
NVIDIA is telling everyone that the GK110, its new Kepler GPU aimed at supercomputing, is all about improving performance per watt. But the other driving theme behind the new architecture is reducing the GPU's reliance on its CPU host. How well it accomplishes both these goals areas could determine the success of the new chip in high performance computing.
