Presenter Loren Shure, Principal Software Developer The MathWorks

Agenda 2:00 p.m.-2:30 p.m. Registration Sign-in (walk-ins welcome)

2:30 p.m.-4:30 p.m. This master class will illustrate the usage and
explain the benefits of many of the different function types
available in MATLAB 7. You will learn how using the right function
type can lead to more robust and maintainable code. Demonstrations
will show how to apply these techniques to solve optimization
problems and make it easier to program GUIs in MATLAB. This session
will also provide you with an understanding of how different MATLAB
data types are stored in memory. This is not a hands-on class;
however, if you have Matlab installed on your laptop, you are
welcome to bring it along to try things out.
