Ruby doesn't have to be slow for scientific computation. It's possible to generate C code on the fly and keep ruby as the DSL and utility language. If you are working with continuous systems (ODEs) or hybrid systems (ODEs plus discrete state transitions and dynamic dataflow networks), then you might be interested in RedShift. For example, here's a simulation of a simple thermostat controller: https://github.com/vjoel/redshift/blob/master/examples/thermostat.rb. (I am the author of RedShift.)
