This paper presents an approach to enrich MATLAB with aspect-oriented extensions to experiment different implementation features. The language we propose aims to configure the low-level data representation of real variables and expressions, to a specifically-tailored fixed-point data representation that benefits from a more efficient support by computing engines (e.g., DSPs, application-specific architectures, etc.) without specific hardware-based floating point units. Additionally, the approach aims to help developers
to introduce handlers and monitoring features, and to configure a function with an optimized implementation.FCT under projects PPC-VM (POSI/CHS/47158/2002) and SOFTAS (POSI/EIA/ 60189/200
