Embedded control systems development environment realized in simulink

The development of embedded control systems is still a relatively new and young discipline. There is consequently a lack of tools, methods and models to support the phases of development, in particular, the early architectural design. In this paper a new environment for embedded control systems development is presented, which supports the modeling of such systems at a high abstraction level. The tool enables control engineers and software developers to focus on the control system aspects instead of the platform's ones. Two application examples will explain the important capability of this tool to provide a timing analysis before the production code generation.
