File menu item

From the File menu, a directed or undirected network topology in the format of a LabelledAdjStruct object (adjacency matrix) can either be created from stratch, or loaded from either the MATLAB workspace or from a file (*.mat or *.slx).

To successfully load a (*.mat) file, it should have been previously generated by saving a network in the app, or saved from the command line. If a Simulink file (*.slx) is loaded, its network topology is converted to the SYSDYNET environment. Any coefficient values in the Simulink model are discarded, and model hierarchy is ignored (i.e., subsystems are reduced to individual links).

The Demo option provides the opportunity for loading one of the demo-networks, including a data set and predictor model for the identification window.

Network topologies created and modified within the app can be saved to a *.mat file for later use.
