Automatically generating documentation for a diagram including a plurality of states and transitions
Patent number: 9047168Abstract: System and method for generating documentation for a diagram including states and transitions. The diagram may be received or otherwise stored and may specify a plurality of states and a plurality of transitions between the states. The first diagram also specifies first functionality. User documentation may be automatically generated for the first diagram based on the first diagram. The user documentation may describe the first diagram, e.g., the plurality of states and the plurality of transitions of the first diagram. Automatic generation of the user documentation may be performed without manual user input specifying the user documentation. The user documentation may be displayed on a display and/or stored in a memory medium.Type: GrantFiled: May 14, 2009Date of Patent: June 2, 2015Assignee: National Instruments CorporationInventors: Praveen Shivananda, Ritesh Kumar Soni, Nicholas G.

Patent number: 8640100Abstract: System and method for configuring wires in and/or debugging a statechart. The statechart may be created or displayed on a display and may include a plurality of state icons connected by wires. The state icons may represent states and the wires may represent transitions between the states. One or more of the wires may be configured, e.g., according to user input. A graphical program may be created which specifies a debugging operation for the statechart. The statechart may be executed and may provide data to the graphical program. The graphical program may receive first data produced by the statechart, e.g., during execution. The graphical program may perform the debugging operation based on the first data.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2007Date of Patent: January 28, 2014Assignee: National Instruments CorporationInventors: Nicholas G. Neumann, Toga Hartadinata

Patent number: 8479151Abstract: System and method for converting a statechart from a first statechart development environment to a second statechart development environment. A first statechart may be received. The first statechart may be created in a first statechart development environment. The first statechart may implement a first functionality. The first statechart may be parsed to determine a plurality of elements of the first statechart. A markup language representation of the first statechart may be generated. The markup language representation may represent the plurality of elements of the first statechart. A second statechart may be generated based on the markup language representation. The second statechart may be in a second statechart development environment. The second statechart may implement the first functionality. The second statechart may be stored.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2010Date of Patent: July 2, 2013Assignee: National Instruments CorporationInventors: David J. Merriman, Nikhil Venkatesh, Nicholas G. Neumann, Ritesh K. Soni, Christina M. Dellas, Praveen Shivananda

Patent number: 8214796Abstract: A system and method for creating a graphical program operable to asynchronously pass one or more trigger events to a statechart. The graphical program may include a first node which is operable to asynchronously send one or more trigger events to a statechart. For example, in some embodiments the first node may be operable to place the one or more trigger events in an event queue associated with the statechart. The statechart may receive and process events from the event queue asynchronously with respect to when the events are placed in the event queue.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2007Date of Patent: July 3, 2012Assignee: National Instruments CorporationInventors: Nicholas G. Neumann, Toga Hartadinata, Kevin M. Hogan

Patent number: 8108833Abstract: A system and method for automatically generating a graphical data flow program from a statechart are disclosed. The statechart may be created in a graphical manner in response to user input, e.g., in response to the user arranging state icons on a display and creating interconnections representing transitions among the respective states. The statechart may include at least one hierarchical state, where each hierarchical state includes one or more sub-states. A graphical data flow program may be automatically generated from the statechart. The graphical data flow program may include a plurality of interconnected nodes that visually indicate functionality of the graphical data flow program, where connections among the nodes visually indicate data flow among the nodes. The graphical data flow program may be executable to implement the functionality of the statechart.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2007Date of Patent: January 31, 2012Assignee: National Instruments CorporationInventors: Christina M. Dellas, Nicholas G. Neumann, Toga Hartadinata, Kevin M. Hogan
