    18 ** About Scilab and Xcos

    19 

    20 Scilab is an easy-to-use, cross-platform, Free and Open Source

    21 numerical computational package with a matrix based programming

    22 language and a diverse inbuilt mathematical library.

    23 

    24 Xcos is a graphical dynamical system modeler and simulator. With Xcos

    25 the user can create block diagrams to model and simulate sophisticated

    26 dynamical systems such as those in signal processing, systems control,

    27 queuing systems, and to study physical, biological and various

    28 engineering systems.
