Real-Time Workshop 7.6

Introduction

Real-Time Workshop generates and executes stand-alone C code for developing and testing algorithms modeled in Simulink and Embedded MATLAB™ code. The resulting code can be used for many real-time and non-real-time applications, including simulation acceleration, rapid prototyping, and hardware-in-the-loop testing. You can tune and monitor the generated code using Simulink blocks and built-in analysis capabilities, or run and interact with the code outside the MATLAB and Simulink environment.

Real-Time Workshop is the foundation for Simulink code generation. It generates ANSI/ISO C-compliant code for an entire model or for an individual subsystem, enabling the code to run on any microprocessor or real-time operating system (RTOS). Add-on products (available separately) extend Real-Time Workshop with additional code generation support and capabilities.

Key Features

• Generates ANSI/ISO C and C++ code and executables for discrete, continuous, or hybrid Simulink models
• Uses model blocks to incrementally generate and build code for large applications
• Supports Simulink data dictionary features for integer, floating-point, and fixed-point data
• Generates code for single-rate, multirate, and asynchronous models
• Supports single-tasking and multitasking operating systems and bare-board (no operating system) environments
• Performs code optimizations that improve code execution speed
• Provides capabilities for code customization and legacy code integration
• Lets you tune and monitor the generated code within or outside Simulink

Code generated by Real-Time Workshop from the HL-20 aircraft model communicating with external I/O in real time. Real-Time Workshop enables prototyping and testing of algorithms with real hardware.
