Production quality code generation from Simulink block diagrams

This paper describes a new code generator that meets both the requirements of production code developers in terms of efficiency and reliability, and of the system engineer doing the control design. It works with MATLAB/Simulink block diagrams, supports automatic scaling, and generates highly-efficient production-ready C code for microcontrollers. The development environment is enhanced by a number of supporting tools to analyze fixed-point effects, profile code sizes and execution times, validate models with automated test series, output ASAP2 calibration information, and generate documentation
