In this study, an education and application interface was designed for model predictive control (MPC). For this design, MPC Toolbox and MATLAB GUI in the MATLAB software were used. Developed interface includes model predictive control methods, such as single-input single-output, multi-input multi-output, constrained or unconstrained systems. The interface, developed for education of model predictive control methods, was tested in class by the students attending to the Process Dynamic and Control course.
