Try

system(strcat('sim/CySim_solver sim/CySim', ' > out'))

ou cannot run the .exe in Linux, at least not simply. Do you have the Linux executable CySim_solver? Can you run it from the command line? Can you run it from the command line when you change to mat labs present working directory (shown when typing

pwd

in Matlab?

You may have to change execution permission to the solver in linux

chmod a+x CySim_solver

and to add the directory of CySim_solver to the PATH or call it in Matlab with the full path.

If you are not familiar with Linux, ask a Linux guy in your team of how to get programs running under Linux. It may be more a Linux problem then a Matlab problem.

Thanks a lot for your time guys. I have an input file for the solver.exe (both in the folder sim) where a system of DAE's are solved. This command works well in Windows. But I intend to run it in workstation which has UniX. When i Run the command that thorsten had provided i get an error saying /bin/bash: sim/CySim_solver: No such file or directory, although the matlab is able to modify the input file.
