MATLAB Coders @ Avular - Automatic Code Generation

This event will focus on sharing how different people use MATLAB/Simulink to solve technical problems. Every second month we have a more detailed topic and this month it would be about Automatic Code Generation. Hosted at Avular in Eindhoven (https://www.avular.com). The presentations will be technical and are aimed at technical people.

• Presesenters, Location and Date are set as the presenters share their talks we will update the agenda accordingly *

Title: Profiling with the Simulink Embedded Coder
Description: The embedded coder is often used to implement application that demands some form of real-time requirement.
In order to effectively design and implement systems that meet these requirements, regular profiling is essential.
Mathworks provide methods to integrate this profiling workflow in the code generation process.
In this talk I will show some of the possibilities for profiling your generated code.

Title: C/C++ code integration with Simulink and Coder Tools
Description: Typically, not all software in a project or product is generated from Simulink models. Therefore, integration of existing C/C++ code with generated code is often required. One approach is based on a well-maintained interface layer. Within this layer, tool limitations can be mitigated but restrict flexibility. Another approach is a full integration of existing datatypes removing the need for extra interface layers. The latter gives more flexibility in switching between code generated from Simulink and code from other sources for individual (sub-)components. The question is whether this approach is feasible - is full integration of existing datatypes achievable? This presentation is about tackling a few of the limitations Simulink has regarding custom C Datatypes.

Title: Simulink code generation in Prodrive Motion Platform
Description: Mathworks provides code generation toolboxes that can be used to generate code from MATLAB scripts and Simulink models. This talk will focus on the code generation from Simulink control loops to C++ code.
At Prodrive a motion platform is realized that can load the generated code as custom blocks which are executed in real time on actual hardware.
This talk will highlight the particular issues that are encountered when integrating such functionality in a platform and providing Simulink code generation to customers for.
Besides the flexibility and performance required to fulfill the requirements of our customers it imposes extra requirements on testing and diagnostics
