The motivation that led us to create this computer aided teaching laboratory is to facilitate the use of digital signal processing methods in engineering practice. It is possible to learn the methods by reading text books or by taking correspondence courses. Mastery of the methods of digital signal processing, however, requires more than adeptness with theory. Those students and engineers in continuing education programs who have used this software laboratory are convinced of its usefulness. It is now part of the digital signal processing course offered at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, EPFL). The attention this material has received from outside EPFL has justified its distribution by Presses Polytechniques Romandes, a non-profit foundation. The benefits will be used solely to support research activities in digital signal processing at EPFL. The subject, namely digital signal processing, and the related methods are described in a companion book, vol. XX of the Traité d'Electricité, Presses Polytechniques Romandes, Lausanne, 1980. Therefore, they are not presented again here. Brief reminders and cross references are abundantly included in the following text. The present state of these programs have been reached by incorporating a plethora of remarks and criticism. They are, however, neither complete nor perfect. Comments and remarks from the users are always welcome.
