Abstract: A method for simulating a program modeled as one or more blocks of a block diagram in a technical computing environment. A block diagram is opened in a model editor. Source code is generated for the one or more blocks of the block diagram using the code generator. The program is configured from the source code using a predefined compiler in order to generate a binary executable file, and the program is simulated, which comprises running at least one function in the auxiliary file in order to determine at least the width of a basic data type corresponding to the enumeration variable in the binary executable file, and allocating one or more variables based on the determined byte width in order to log the simulation results.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and device for determining a run time that is needed by a function of a control program for a control unit in a real-time system, executed on a target processor in a processor-in-the-loop (PIL) simulation, wherein the method includes the creation or loading of a graphical development model of the control unit in(to) a development environment, wherein the graphical development model maps the functionality of the control unit using function blocks or function symbols in the graphical development model; selection of at least one function block or function symbol within the graphical development model, particularly selection of a function block or function symbol via a graphical user interface; and automatic generation of the control program for execution on the target processor in accordance with the graphical development model, wherein the control program includes the function which maps the functionality of the selected function block or function symbol.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for generating a control program that is executable on a control system from a graphical control model. A better utilization of the control system is achieved in that the graphical control model is translated into program code such that the generated program code has at least one FXP operation and at least one FLP operation, and in that the generated program code is translated into the executable control program such that when the control program is executed on the control system a portion of the control program is executed on the FXP unit and another portion of the control program is executed on the FLP unit.

Abstract: A method for generating production code from a block diagram in a technical computing environment on a host computer. A first block receives a first input signal that has a plurality of elements. A size of a first required signal of the external function is determined and compared to a size of the first input signal. When the size of the first required signal corresponds to the size of an element in the first input signal a production code is generated enclosing a call of the external function by a loop consecutively addressing each of the plurality of elements in the first input signal. When the size of the first required signal corresponds to the size of the first input signal a production code is generated having a call of the external function without enclosing loop over the elements in the first input signal.
