Several recent postings have asked about MATLAB to Fortran and
MATLAB to C translation.  The closest thing we have is a new
"Code Generation" facility that takes SIMULINK blocks and 
generates C code for use in real-time simulation, control and
signal processing hardware, including equipment from a Germany
company, dSpace.  This amounts to translation from a limited subset
of MATLAB-esse to C.

The facilities available with other M-systems like Mathematica,
Maple and MACSYMA, will translate single arithmetic expressions
in those languages to Fortran, C or Tex.  Since these systems can
generate lengthly arithmetic expressions, such translation is
useful.  But there is no translation of larger code fragments
or complete subprograms.
