  • Patent number: 10640069
    Abstract: A partition is formed with a thermoformed panel having a front side, a rear side, a driver-side portion, a passenger-side portion, and a gun well positioned between the driver-side portion and the passenger-side portion. The gun well is recessed toward the rear side of the thermoformed panel. The driver-side portion is sized and dimensioned to extend along a majority of a vertical height of a driver-side seat of a vehicle. The driver-side portion is formed with a driver-side seatback transitional surface transitioning from the driver-side portion toward the gun well. The driver-side seatback transitional surface is tangentially angled and non-squared. The passenger-side portion is formed with a passenger-side seatback transitional surface transitioning from the passenger-side portion toward the gun well. The passenger-side seatback transitional surface is tangentially angled and non-squared.

  • Patent number: 8990783
    Abstract: Embodiments can include computer-implemented methods or non-transitory computer readable media storing executable instructions. The method or instructions can perform execution scheduling for code generated from an executable graphical model, where the generated code is executed on a target. The method/instructions can perform execution scheduling for a first code portion having a first execution rate, and a second code portion having a second execution rate that is temporally related to the first execution rate. The execution scheduling can account for target environment characteristics obtained from a target, can use an execution schedule, and can account for optimizations related to the first code portion or the second code portion. The method/instructions can further schedule execution of the first code portion and the second code portion in generated executable code based on the performing.

  • Publication number: 20130346647
    Abstract: When executing a graphical model of a dynamic system that includes two or more concurrently executing sets of operations, a processor is configured to create a first buffer and a second buffer within the executable graphical model. A first set of operations is configured to write data to the first buffer during a first execution instance of the first set of operations. The first set of operations is configured to write data to the second buffer during a second execution instance of the first thread. A second set of operations is configured to read the data from the first buffer during an instance of the second thread that executes contemporaneously with the second execution instance of the first set of operations. Determinations regarding access to the first buffer and second buffer by the first thread and second thread are self-contained within the first thread and second thread, respectively.
