Abstract

The paper presents a newly developed Matlab Adapter tool that enables to build Matlab/Simulink based online applications. It was built in the form of web service that is available via REST API. In this way the client application can be developed in any programming language. The server side of application was built in Java programming language. We developed several REST endpoints that enable to set parameters, to run simulations or experiments and to follow results.
