About MathWorks

Accelerating the pace of engineering and science

MathWorks, headquartered in Natick, Massachusetts, is the world’s leading developer and supplier of mathematical computing software. Engineers and scientists worldwide rely on its products to accelerate the pace of discovery, innovation, and development. MathWorks since its inception in 1984, is privately held. MathWorks produces a comprehensive family of over 90+ software tools for engineers and scientists.

These tools are based on MATLAB®, the industry-standard language for technical computing. MATLAB combines numeric computation and visualization with an easy-to-use programming language. MATLAB and related tools are invaluable for data acquisition, data analysis, algorithm development, data visualization, and application development.

The Simulink® product family builds on MATLAB, adding functionality for Model-Based Design, system-level simulation, and implementation of embedded systems. Simulink provides a block-diagram environment for modeling, simulating, and implementing complex systems—particularly for control, DSP, and communications systems. Other Simulink tools are Stateflow®, for modeling and implementing even-driven systems; Real-Time Workshop®, for automatically generating real-time code; and xPC Target, for rapid prototyping and hardware-in-the-loop testing.

MATLAB and Simulink are used throughout the automotive, aerospace, communications, electronics, and industrial automation industries as fundamental tools for research and development. They are also used for modeling and simulation in increasingly technical fields, such as financial services and computational biology. MATLAB and Simulink enable the design and development of a wide range of advanced products, including automotive systems, aerospace flight control and avionics, telecommunications and other electronics equipment, industrial machinery, and medical devices.

About ICT Academy

ICT Academy is an initiative of the Government of India in collaboration with the state Governments and Industries. ICT Academy is a not-for-profit society, the first of its kind pioneer venture under the Public-Private-Partnership (PPP) model that endeavours to train the higher education teachers and students thereby exercises on developing the next generation teachers and industry ready students.

ICT Academy was started to meet the skill requirements of the industry and generate more employment especially in tier 2 and 3 towns, the rural parts of the country. The organization was formed with representations from the State Government of Tamil Nadu, leading companies in the ICT industry and National Association of Software Services Companies (NASSCOM) in India.

With training of teachers and students as the primary objective, ICT Academy has been working through a seven pillar program in the areas of Faculty Development, Student Skill Development, Entrepreneurship Development, Youth Empowerment, Industry-Institute Interaction, Digital Empowerment and Research & Publications.

In the last 13 years, ICT Academy has strived on every aspect to provide a holistic service to every stakeholder of the education ecosystem in developing the next generation of talent pool in India to make them industry ready employees, innovators, entrepreneurs and leaders.

Through its various initiatives, ICT Academy has been part of strengthening the India’s four important visions on Skill India, Digital India, Startup India and Make in India.
