|Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Why Scilab.
|-
|00.06
| In this tutorial you will come to know some of the capabilities of the Scilab package and benefits of shifting to Scilab.
|-
|00.15
| Scilab is free and open source, user friendly numerical and computational package used in various streams of Engineering and Science.
|-
|00.26
| It is available for various operating systems (OS) namely Windows, Linux and Mac OS/X
|-
|00.33
| Scilab is to be pronounced with “Sci” as in Scientific and “Lab” as in Laboratory
|-
|00.42
|Because Scilab is a free and open source software(FOSS), users can:
|-
|00.47
|See and modify the source code.
|-
|00.49
|Redistribute and improve the source code.
|-
|00.53
|Use the software for any purpose.
|-
| 00.56
|This is obvious advantage for Private Industries, Entrepreneurs, Defence Establishments,
|-
|01.03
|Research Organisations, Academic Institutions and the Individual User.
|-
| 01.10
|As an institution, piracy of commercial packages is avoided fully by adopting FOSS tools.
|-
| 01.17
|Skills learnt using Scilab at academic level are useful later in the industry as usage is free of cost.
|-
| 01.27
|Scilab together with various toolboxes, which are also free, can perform operations like
|-
|01.33
|Matrix operations
|-
|01.35
|Control Systems
|-
|01.37
|Image and Video Processing (SIVP)
|-
|01.39
| Real-time Control of Hardware using(Serial Toolbox)
|-
|01.43
|Interfacing Data Acquisition Systems/Cards using (HART Toolbox)
|-
|01.50
|Simulation with the help of (Xcos-Block Diagram Simulator)
|-
|01.55
|Plotting
|-
| 01.57
|Hardware In Loop (HIL) Simulation
|-
|02.02
|Hardware-In--Loop differs from pure real-time simulation by the addition of a real component in the loop.
|-
|02.10
|Scilab in combination with 'Single Board Heater System device' is used as a HIL setup for performing control system experiments.
|-
| 02.29
|Syntax is very easy for Scilab.
|-
| 02.32
|Many numerical problems can be expressed in a reduced number of code lines, as compared to similar solutions using traditional languages, such as Fortran, C, or C++.
|-
|02.44
|Scilab like many well known proprietary packages uses “State-of-art” librarie viz. LAPACK for numerical computations.
|-
| 02.54
|There is a very large user community that uses and supports Scilab by contributing a great deal in the form of mailing lists,
|-
|03.03
|Usenet groups i.e (Internet Discussion forums), and websites.
|-
| 03.08
| For more information about scilab, its toolboxes and mailing lists visit;: www.scilab.org or www.scilab.in website
|-
| 03.20
|Some organisations that are using Scilab very successfully are
|-
|03.25
|CNES which is (French Space Satellite Agency), below is the given link (http://www.scilab.org/news/events/20090706/Use-of-SciLab-for-space-mission-analysis)
|-
|03.35
|EQUALIS ( http://www.equalis.com)
|-
| 03.38
|Techpassiontech ( http://www.techpassiontech.com) and
|-
| 03.40
|IIT Bombay (Research/Academic purposes.).
|-
| 03.46
|Some of the activities for promoting Scilab through NMEICT projects at IIT Bombay are
|-
| 03.53
|Lab Migration that is ( Shifting all computational laboratories to Scilab)
|-
|03.59
|Virtual Labs that is ( Remote Access to the Single Board Heater System: www.co-learn.in/web_sbhs )
|-
|04.04
| In addition, the FOSSEE Project funded by National Mission on Education through ICT, MHRD, Govt of India, currently focuses on Python and Scilab.
|-
| 04.17
| We have several spoken tutorial on Scilab at this time.
|-
| 04.21
|| Scilab Effort in India is co-ordinated through this website scilab.in
|-
| 04.27
|There are some interesting projects one of them is the Textbook Companion project, that codes worked out examples of standard textbooks using Scilab
|-
| 04.37
| The link project allows users to link known Scilab documents and to rank them
|-
| 04.45
|We also help organize Scilab Workshops
|-
| 04.48
|We have two mailing lists one for announce and another for discuss.
|-
|04.54
|We invite your participation in all our activities
|-
| 04.58
|Let us get back to spoken tutorials
|-
|05.01
|The spoken part will be available in various Indian Languages as well.
|-
| 05.07
|These are available at spoken-tutorial.org website
|-
| 05.12
|These tutorials form a part of Level 0 training in Scilab.
|-
| 05.17
|These tutorials are available absolutely free of cost.
|-
|05.21
| We wish to cover many FOSS systems through this route.
|-
|05.25
|We welcome your feedback on these.
|-
| 05.29
| We also welcome your participation
|-
| 05.31
|On writing the outline for the software.
|-
| 05.34
| To write the original scripts.
|-
| 05.37
|To record the spoken tutorial.
|-
| 05.39
| To translate the script into various Indian Languages.
|-
|05.43
|To dub the audio in Indian Languages using the script.
|-
|05.47
| To review and give your feedback on all of the above.
|-
| 05.51
|We welcome you to conduct workshops using these spoken tutorials.
|-
|05.56
|We also invite you to conduct efficacy studies on Spoken tutorials.
|-
| 06.01
|We are also looking for experts who can give technology support for audio, video, automatic translation, etc.
|-
| 06.08
|We have funding for all these activities
|-
| 06.13
| This spoken tutorial has been created by the Free and Open Source Software in Science and Engineering Education(FOSSEE).
|-
|06.20
|More information on the FOSSEE project could beobtained from fossee.in or scilab.in website
|-
