  • Publication number: 20210382698
    Abstract: Systems and methods may generate code, for a model, with one or more service access points generated and at locations in the code based on an analysis of model constraints and deployment specifications (e.g., RTE specifications or OS specifications). The systems and methods may analyze the model and identify a functionality that needs an RTE service. The system and methods may receive deployment specifications. The systems and methods may generate code for the model, where an analysis of model constraints and the deployment specifications determine which service access points are generated and where in the code the service access points are located. In an embodiment, the code may be executed by different RTEs. In an embodiment, the systems and methods may determine, based on the analysis of the model constraints and the deployment specification, one or more admissible implementations for an RTE service that may be implemented in different ways.

  • Patent number: 9304838
    Abstract: A device may receive a model including a group of blocks, and may receive a command to execute the model. The device may assign a parameter sample time to a subset of blocks of the group of blocks. The parameter sample time may permit a block, of the subset of blocks, to be executed based on a parameter change event detected during the execution of the model. The device may cause the model to be executed after assigning the parameter sample time to the subset of blocks. The device may detect a parameter change event, associated with the model, prior to the execution of the model being completed. The parameter change event may include an event that is external to the execution of the model. The device may cause at least one block, of the subset of blocks, to be executed based on the detecting the parameter change event.
