Interfacing With External Program

I am making a chess playing robot which will be controlled online by matlab through serial interface. Currently, I need to interface with a chess engine. It should go like this. The chess engine is running separately. I send it string queries such as "move e2-e4" It returns string answers such as "bestmove g2-g4" I don't see where I can start. Can someone please link me to some example communication with external programs. I don't have C-source code of the program. Just an exe.

If you were not in MATLAB how would you call the chess engine? You can call external exe files with system.
doc system

Did you look at the documentation for system?
try:
[status, result] = system('c:\ChessEnginePath\engine.exe move e2-e4')

On a similar problem I used the program expect to talk to the "bad" program for me. Say as mediator. (manual is at eg http://www.tcl.tk/man/expect5.31/expect.1.html and there are many samples online )
In your case the comand should look like:
[status,result] = system(...
'expect -c ''spawn engine; send "move e2-e4\r"; close;''')
It can be installed on windows via cygwin (as I did) or mingw.
