Abstract: A device may include a first type of modeling environment, a second type of modeling environment, and an abstract interface. The first type of modeling environment may be associated with at least one of a first toolbox or a first function. The second type of modeling environment may include a model. The second type of modeling environment may be different than the first type of modeling environment and may be incompatible with the at least one of a first toolbox or a first function. The abstract interface may interface with the first type of modeling environment and the second type of modeling environment. The abstract interface may allow the at least one of a first toolbox or a first function to be used in the model in the second type of modeling environment.

Abstract: A class definition syntax that leverages the array and math-oriented nature of a dynamically typed array-based programming language is discussed. Some embodiments of the present invention provides a mechanism for using meta-data to define a class implemented in the dynamically typed array-based programming language. The meta-data provide an easy way to provide class definitions and allow a user to access the class definitions from objects. The meta-data also support extension of class definitions without introducing backward incompatibility.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product is disclosed for providing a distributed computing environment in which an arbitrary job manager or scheduler is able to be plugged. In the distributed computing environment, a job is created in a storage location to include one or more technical computing tasks and submitted to the arbitrary scheduler by transferring a reference to the storage location of the job. Since a reference to the storage location of the job is transferred to the scheduler, the interface with the scheduler can be implemented regardless of the scheduler. The scheduler then transfers the reference to the storage location of the job to one or more remote workers.

Abstract: A system generates an executable process for execution by a concurrent computing environment, generates a configuration that specifies configurable properties of the concurrent computing environment, and initiates execution of the executable process, with the concurrent computing environment, to initiate configuration of the concurrent computing environment based on the configurable properties of the configuration.

Abstract: A method and system is disclosed for providing a distributed technical computing environment for distributing technical computing tasks from a technical computing client to technical computing workers for execution of the tasks on one or more computers systems. Tasks can be defined on a technical computing client, and the tasks organized into jobs. The technical computing client can directly distribute tasks to one or more technical computing workers. Furthermore, the technical computing client can submit tasks, or jobs comprising tasks, to an automatic task distribution mechanism that distributes the tasks automatically to one or more technical computing workers providing technical computing services. The technical computing worker performs technical computing of tasks and the results of the execution of tasks may be provided to the technical computing client. Data associated with the tasks is managed by a programmable interface associated with a data storage repository.

Abstract: Programming or modeling environments in which programs or models are simulated or executed with tunable sample times are disclosed. The tunable sample times can be changed during the simulation or execution of the programs or models without recompiling the programs or models. The sample times are parameterized and the value of the sample times is changed during the simulation or execution of the programs or models. The sample times may be changed manually by a user. Alternatively, the sample times may be automatically changed by programmatically defining when and how the sample times are determined.

Abstract: The present invention provides intrinsic units of measure for modeling physical systems. Physical systems may then be modeled using the units of measure. As such, actual units, reflecting real world measurements, can be used and propagated through the modeled system yielding results having units of measure. In some embodiments, units of measure may also be checked to determine if they are compatible for a given operation. If units are not compatible, the user may then be notified that compatible units are required.

Abstract: A method of ensuring the integrity of read-only components in deployed mixed-mode applications that includes generating a digital fingerprint prior to the deployment of a mixed-mode application is discussed. The digital fingerprint is based on a read-only component in the mixed-mode application and uniquely identifies the read-only component. The method also deploys the mixed-mode application and the digital fingerprint. Additionally, the method verifies, at execution time by using the digital fingerprint, that the read-only component in the mixed-mode deployed application that served as the basis for the digital fingerprint is identical to the same read-only component originally packaged with the mixed-mode application.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a graphical arrangement of one or more interface elements and a definition of one or more events associated with the interface elements is used to build a state diagram model of a graphical user interface (GUI). The state diagram model of the GUI includes a plurality of states, and one or more transitions linking at least some of the states. The state diagram model may be displayed to a user, and in some cases, simulated to test functionality of the GUI. In response to user input, the state diagram model may be modified to change functionality of the GUI and/or to add functionality to the GUI. The GUI may then be generated from the state diagram model.

Abstract: Simulate and calibrate a process by generating a modular representation of a process using modules and variables, each module representing a portion of the process, each variable representing an adjustable parameter of the process. One or more variables are set to specific values. Source code is generated to implement the process according to the modular representation, the code being generated without implementing portions of the process that are not executable when the one or more variables are set to the specific values. The source code is compiled into a machine code and executed to implement the process.

Abstract: A modeling system includes a graphical programming environment that receives a first graphical model from a user. The system may also receive a configuration control set for the first graphical model. A code generation engine converts the first graphical model into an intermediate representation (IR). A second graphical model is created from the IR and the configuration control set. The second graphical model is displayed to the user, and may be subject to one or more modifications. Code in a target language may be generated from the second graphical model.
