You are absolutely right. :^DuB_

1, Modelling optical system in codev and getting system response functions, using these functions in matlab to build input/output spectrum relationship( such as: if input spectrum distribution is known, matlab does convolution to predict the output,... ); s4 o-*1R*`
By the way, right now 9.7/9.8 provides diffraction imaging function, probably it can perform the same. kfo, PrW`A

2, Further more, OE detector and electronics being modeled in matlab to simulate whole system, like saturation, dynamic, SNR, frequency response, even thermal & mechanical variation. bQlShVJL

3, At that time(back to 2001), non-sequencial optics softwares were not available for me --- had to use codev+matlab to do straylight and illumination efficiency design. fbKL31PI
