The program produces plots of output and control input for optimal and suboptimal regulator. The value of T and the final time ??ft can be changed with the slider bars. The A, B, and C buttons allow the user to change the system parameters. The system button prints system parameters in continuous and discretetime, sampling period, poles of the system, and the final time. The recalc button updates the plots based on the parameter changes. Although, the GUI is very useful for presenting the changes in system response due to parameter variations, the implementation is very time consuming and requires an extensive knowledge of MATLAB. Conclusion In this paper, we have presented the use of MATLAB and some of its panion toolboxes in our graduate curriculum, at Penn State University and the University of Arkansas. Several of the advantages provided by puter simulation packages, such as MATLAB, include a reinforcement of student understanding of theoretical principles, allowing assignment of larger, and more plex designs, increased student attentiveness, and enhanced professional development. The main disadvantages of using puter simulation packages are the extra work required of students and instructors, the maintenance and operation of these packages on an accessible puter system, and assuring that the packages are inserted in the baseline curriculum as part of the required course material. Due to the variety of student backgrounds (at Penn State Great Valley Campus), some students have had no prior exposure to the MATLAB which made it difficult for them to finish all the assignments. Using user interface controls will reduce this problem but at the same time will place more burden on the instructor. The general student reaction to the use of and MATLAB has been very positive.
