Engineering softwares of the future
Engineering software of the future Introduction Engineering softwares have evolved from the days when you had to buy a software license, install it on your computer and start working. With the advent of cloud-based platforms, engineers are now able to use a single tool across multiple platforms, which is known as SaaS (Software as a Service). However, this trend has not been without its share of challenges. MATLAB MATLAB is a high-level language and interactive environment for numerical computation, visualization, and programming. It is used in engineering, science and mathematics education as well as in many technical fields. In the past few years MATLAB has become one of the most popular software packages for engineers who need to solve engineering problems but do not have access to expensive hardware like supercomputers or parallel clusters of workstations (also known as cluster computers). The main advantage of using software instead of hardware lies in its flexibility; you can use...
