Abstract: According to the invention, simulation code and production code are generated as source code from a model. The model comprises one or more blocks which specify a desired behavior of a program, in particular a control program. At least one of the blocks is marked with a simulation code attribute. Simulation code is generated for those blocks that include a simulation code attribute. Production code is generated for all other blocks. The generated source code includes both simulation code and production code. The simulation code portions are contained in the source code in a separable manner from the production code portions.

Abstract: A computer project management system and method for the creation of an electronic control unit software is provided. The system has a software architecture tool configured to design a graphical model of an electronic control unit for a motor vehicle. A behavior model tool converts the graphical model into a computer readable production code. A software container has a file generated based on the electronic control unit. A container manager compares the software container with a prior software container during the importation or exportation of the software container to or from the software architecture tool or the behavior model tool, and a comparison list is generated indicating whether interface modifications for the electronic control unit were made. The comparison list is then displayed to a user on a display screen.
