Open Source Software and MATLAB: Principles, Practices, and Python

Did you know that MathWorks has a long history of support and contributions in the open source software (OSS) community, even predating MATLAB^® itself? Throughout this session, you’ll consider three primary approaches to this support: (1) OSS (on top of) MATLAB and Simulink^® (2) OSS (within) MATLAB and Simulink (3) OSS (alongside) MATLAB and Simulink.

You’ll also explore OSS philosophies and methodologies, emphasizing the importance of community collaboration, transparency, and shared progress. Discover best practices for creating and integrating OSS with MATLAB, covering topics such as code interoperability, version control, and workflow management. See these principles illustrated through examples using MATLAB with Python® for an AI application and hear strategies, common questions, and practical advice. Join Heather Gorr and Mike Croucher as they share their expertise in contributing to the OSS community, advice combining programming languages together, and how this can all lead to innovation and general advancements in research and development.
