  • Patent number: 8364449
    Abstract: A process for automatic generation of functional digital simulation of an electronic system starting from a wiring specification base, whereby the system includes equipment, at least one connecting wire interconnecting the equipment, optionally inputs/outputs to other systems, includes: creating a wire table TC by selecting and extracting data from the wiring specification base, the wire table TC including the reference of equipment it is connected to and the equipment category at least for each wire of the electronic system to be simulated and for each end of the wire; creating a simulation table TS by transformating each line of the wire table TC by using rules specific to each pair of pieces of equipment connected by each wire; and creating a computer code interpreted by a simulator, by transformating each line of the simulation table TS into a set of computer code lines according to the input and output equipment.

  • Patent number: 8301422
    Abstract: A process for creating a semi-equipment library for a computerized simulator that simulates an electronic system having plural pieces of semi-equipment. The process includes creation of an algorithm representing the respective piece of semi-equipment, the algorithm being in the form of blocks compatible with a simulation language for the simulator. The process includes listing standards that define the piece of semi-equipment and coding the listed standards. The coding includes generating computer code suitable for the simulator and placing the generated computer code in respective ones of the blocks, which are integrated into the semi-equipment library.

  • Publication number: 20110010146
    Abstract: In a process for creating a semi-equipment library S-E Library, the semi-equipment, defined by predetermined standards, is integrated into at least one electronic system. The semi-equipment library S-E Library includes—for at least one piece of semi-equipment—a logical functioning algorithm that represents it, in the form of generic simulation blocks (formal, functional graphic schemas) compatible with a simulation language. The generic simulation blocks have identified inputs and outputs. The process includes: 1) listing all of the standards that correspond to all of the components connected at the wire ends of an electronic sub-system desired to simulate; and 2) coding, for each standard, of the corresponding semi-equipment. This sub-stage includes: 2a) analysis of the nomenclature and the functioning algorithm of the semi-equipment; and 2b) coding the logic of the semi-equipment in a simulation block in the form of a formal, functional graphic schema to be interpreted by simulation software.
