Leo you can use Matlab for a multitude of things in SI, lately I've seen 
many people using it
specifically for High-Speed Linear interconnect simulations, most 
commonly derived from
S-parameters/impulse responses etc.  Of course it's usage is not limited 
for that and this
tool has been extensively used in the past for all kind of signal 
processing and RF application.

Some other possible usages 'maybe' more
directly related to SI are:

- PLL modeling, jitter in general
- CDR modeling, (any kind of algorithm)
- Signal analysis (spectral analysis), time/frequency domain
- Statistical analysis. BER, Bathtub Curves, Jitter decomposition etc.
- Filters, any type of fitting or mathematical model

That's the nice thing about a general purpose programming language, Matlab
or anything else for that matter (PERL, C) , they are open and flexible 
and the kind of things and usages,  are  entirely  up to you.
Of course the drawback, is that creating the algorithms, for the most part
it's also entirely up to you.

In Matlab, there are several toolboxes that have already been created that
may help you in some cases to get started,
just to mention some you may find this useful:
- Filter toolbox
- RF toolbox
- Statistical toolbox
- System Identification toolbox

These libraries/toolboxes are not only limited to Matlab, other programming
languages such as PERL and C,  also have specialized/math libraries.

Thanks
Gus
