 - Cranes Software International Ltd announced the availability of
 Matlab's Communications Blockset 2.5. Communications Blockset 2.5
 which extends the Simulink® system level design environment provides
 more than 150 blocks to model the physical and link layer of
 communication systems. New algorithms and wireless system models
 enable communications systems engineers to develop more accurate
 system level simulations and specifications, reducing design risk for
 wireless, broadband, broadcasting and satellite systems and
 semiconductors. The latest version contains a new RF impairment
 library, which allows users to model the impact of nonlinearity,
 phase noise, and other RF effects on baseband communication design.

 etc.
 
 - Cranes Software International Ltd and its US principal The
 Mathworks Inc., announced today the availability of Matlab's
 SimMechanics 2 the latest version of its mechanical simulation
 software that expands the power of Simulink® to model physical
 systems. With SimMechanics 2, engineers now have the ability to
 simulate their mechanical models on real time hardware in the loop
 (HIL) systems, allowing them to test and improve their controller and
 mechanical designs earlier in the design cycle.
 
 - Cranes Software International Ltd has announced June 02, the
 availability of Image Acquisition Toolbox. The Image Acquisition
 Toolbox simplifies the acquisition and analysis process by enabling
