Scilab at ESA Summer of Code in Space 2015

Scilab is one of the 23 projects that have been selected as mentoring organization for the fifth edition of the program ESA Summer of Code in Space (SOCIS) is a program run by the European Space Agency. It aims at offering student developers stipends to write code for various space-related open source software projects. Through SOCIS, accepted student applicants are paired with a mentor or mentors from the participating projects, thus gaining exposure to real-world software development scenarios. In turn, the participating projects are able to more easily identify and bring in new developers.

Scilab at NAFEMS Event on Optimization in Germany

March 23 & 24, Wiesbaden (Germany) Optimization has become an essential part of the development processes. Along with a growing use of such methods, the needs for their adaptation have accordingly evolved. Scilab answers these needs both as a numerical tool for solving optimization problems, and as an open source platform for product development integration. In this context, Scilab Enterprises will attend the NAFEMS Event on optimization on March 23rd and 24th in Wiesbaden. More about the event Optimierungsverfahren sind zu einer wesentlichen Stütze in den Entwicklungsprozessen geword

Scilab back in GSOC

Scilab Enterprises has been accepted as mentoring organization in GSOC 2015 Scilab is very happy to renew with the GSOC program and be one of 137 open source projects to participate as a mentoring organization. The Google Summer of Code (GSoC) is an annual program organized by Google to promote the development of free software. Through this program, Google offers student developers stipends to write code for various open source software projects during the spring. The participating projects are chosen on the reputation of the software, its quality and the relevance and feasibility of propo

Release of SWIG 3.0.5

The latest version of SWIG, open source software tool, supports now Scilab language. SWIG (Simplified Wrapper and Interface Generator) is used to connect computer programs or libraries written in C or C++ with scripting languages such as Lua, Perl, PHP, Python, R, Ruby, Tcl, and other languages like C#, Java, JavaScript, Go, Modula-3, OCaml, Octave, Scheme, and now Scilab. Major applications of SWIG include generation of scripting language extension modules, rapid prototyping, testing, and user interface development for large C/C++ systems.  With its rich syntax, powerful parsing and code g
