If you are like me, you read the doc, a lot.  I am often clicking on the help just to verify my understanding of a function’s syntax, or the behavior of a block.  That is why I wasn’t surprised to... 続きを読む >>

A Simulink developer caught me in the hall last week and asked me, “How do people use the Signal Conversion block?”  He was specifically interested in how people use Contiguous Copy mode, and if... 続きを読む >>

Happy New Year!  On New Year’s Eve, it snowed for most of
the day in Massachusetts.  On New Year’s Day, I went out to clear some snow
from my driveway.  When I stopped for a rest this beautiful white… 続きを読む >>

Simulink models often use parameters from the MATLAB base workspace.  However, Simulink does not save the MATLAB base workspace with the model.  This leads me to the following question: How do you... 続きを読む >>

In embedded systems, computation time and memory are critical resources.  Floating-point calculations require special floating-point units for efficient computation and this translates to... 続きを読む >>

Your model is someone else’s component.  The Model block
allows you to treat a Simulink model as a component within a larger system.  In this
post I will discuss the basic concepts of model
reference... 続きを読む >>

Today’s post is courtesy of my first guest blogger Tom Erkkinen, my colleague from the MathWorks office in Novi, Michigan! Ever try to compile code generated by Real-Time Workshop on... 続きを読む >>

After posting last week about Model Advisor enhancements for R2008b, I got this e-mail from my friend Salina: Seth! You didn’t even mention the help for each check! My apologies go to... 続きを読む >>

How do you check your model for common mistakes?  Do you have an easy way to verify that your model matches the MAAB (MathWorks Automotive Advisory Board) Control Algorithm Modeling Guidelines? ... 続きを読む >>

Simulink models present a schematic layout of your algorithm.  The diagram encodes information about the system in the form of block icons, data type annotations, and sample time colors.  In... 続きを読む >>
