Notable products
MathWorks is known for making powerful software used in many scientific and technical fields.
MATLAB

MATLAB is a programming language made for numerical analysis (especially numerical linear algebra).Gilat, Amos (2004). MATLAB: An Introduction with Applications 2nd Edition. John Wiley & Sons.Quarteroni, Alfio; Saleri, Fausto (2006). Scientific Computing with MATLAB and Octave. Springer.Gander, W., & Hrebicek, J. (Eds.). (2011). Solving problems in scientific computing using Maple and Matlab®. Springer Science & Business Media. It is named after Matrix Laboratory.

Simulation software
MathWorks is also known for their simulation-related products. The most famous one is Simulink.Binh, L. N. (2014). Optical fiber communication systems with Matlab and Simulink models. CRC Press.Stewart, R. W., Barlee, K. W., & Atkinson, D. S. (2015). Software defined radio using MATLAB & Simulink and the RTL-SDR. Strathclyde Academic Media.Chaturvedi, D. K. (2017).

Engineering Computations and Modeling in MATLAB®/Simulink®. American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Inc..Klee, H., & Allen, R. (2016). Simulation of dynamic systems with MATLAB and Simulink. CRC Press. It is very popular as same as MATLAB. There is also SimEvents and Stateflow. SimEvents was made to simulate physical or dynamical events.Gray, M. A. (2007). Discrete event simulation: A review of SimEvents. Computing in Science & Engineering, 9(6), 62-66.Harahap, E., Sukarsih, I., Gunawan, G., Fajar, M. Y., Darmawan, D., & Nishi, H. (2016).
