Virtual tools for remote analysis and simulation

This document describes a general structure for the implementation of virtual tools for remote calculation through Internet. Two virtual tools for mathematical analysis (Analys) and simulation of dynamic systems (SimWeb), supported by the Matlab/spl copy/, are described. These virtual tools, permit access to the Matlab from multiple work stations, without distance, power computer restrictions or user's knowledge in Matlab language; in a similar way, they allow the simulations of block diagrams through a friendly user interface. The remote calculation tools have low cost of implementation, allowing to obtain a system of high calculation power and accessible for a great number of users. The tools are oriented to automatic control systems analysis and simulation, but their use is expandable to other fields of engineering and basic sciences.
