Embedded Coder Fundamentals - MATLAB & Simulink (original) (raw)

Concepts for generating code for deployment in embedded systems

You can use Embedded Coder® to generate production code from Simulink® models for deployment in target execution environments. Learn about terms, definitions, and concepts that provide a consistent and common language for using Embedded Coder software.

If you are developing software for deployment to a target environment, see the workflow described in Deploy Generated Software. If you are customizing the code generation environment for modelers to use, see Customize Code Generation Environment.

Topics

• Software Deployment Objectives and Deployment Types
  Produce units of code from Simulink models for deployment in a target execution environment.
• Target Environment Services
  Get familiar with target platform and custom services that support execution of applications and components.
• Code Interfaces and Code Interface Specification
  Learn how generated application and component code interacts with target environment services and how to configure the interaction for code generation.
• Data Communication Methods
  Learn how target environment services coordinate data communication for tasks, including concurrent data access.
• Code Interface Configurations
  Create code interface templates that can be model-independent or shared amongst models.
• Deploy Generated Software
  Design and configure Simulink models from which you can generate code for deployment to a target environment.
• Code Generation Goal Summary
  Find information relevant to your project goals.
• Customize Code Generation Environment
  Customize code generation environment for a project or organization.
