摘要： A time-driven block provided in a block diagram model may be executed in an event domain without user modification. The time-driven block is connected to one or more event-driven blocks using event domain signals. The time-driven block automatically adapts to the execution rules of the event domain modeling and simulation environment. The blocks that are configured to execute in more than one modeling and simulation environments are called polymorphic blocks. The polymorphic blocks are indentified during the compilation stage of the block diagram model taking into consideration the port and line styles of the blocks. The execution rules of the polymorphic blocks are also determined during the compilation stage of the block diagram model.

摘要： A computational device receives, from a user, a selection of a block, a subsystem or multiple blocks from a block diagram modeling environment, and presents, to the user, a set of parameters associated with the block, subsystem, or multiple blocks. The computational device receives, from the user, selection of a first subset of parameters from the set of parameters, and creates a customized dialog box by promoting the selected first subset of parameters to the customized dialog box, wherein the customized dialog box permits editing of values associated only with the first subset of parameters.

摘要： Graphical programming or modeling environments, such as a block diagram environment, are disclosed in which dependencies that influence how a model executes are defined without altering the visual representation of the model. In the graphical modeling or programming environment, users create a model that describes how the system is to execute. The users can then augment the model with non-graphical dependencies that provide general execution goals or specific dependencies between blocks. The user can augment the graphical model with dependency constraints specifying how the model should execute. The constraints are coupled to the model and can be optionally displayed on the model in a debugging/analysis mode to provide further insight into how the model executes.

摘要： An exemplary embodiment may provide a repository for containing representations that represent a model or a portion of the model. A user may store the representations in the repository, for example, as functions. The functions stored in the repository may be shared and used for processing another model that includes a pattern performing the same or similar function as the representations stored in the repository. A checksum may be compared to determine an equivalent function in the repository. In a different embodiment, the intermediate representation of the pattern may be compared to determine an equivalent function in the repository.

摘要： A method of controlling the conditional execution of elements and subsystems in a block diagram is disclosed. Data structures known as Execution Contexts are created and associated with individual block diagram elements and subsystems. The Execution Contexts allow execution of the associated element or subsystem upon satisfaction of a specified pre-condition. The Execution Contexts may be inherited by other elements and subsystems in the block diagram and propagated programmatically throughout the block diagram. The use of the Execution Contexts allows for efficient code generation and block diagram execution, as well as supporting modular design concepts.

摘要： A mechanism for processing graphical block diagram parameter expressions is presented. The mechanism achieves optimal implementation of block equations in the execution (run-time) environment by defining a mapping between user-defined block parameters and a run-time version of the parameters. The parameter processing mechanism also pools like, non-interfaced parameter expressions, allowing reuse of both uniform and non-uniform data across constant block parameters in the generated code and during model execution. The parameter processing mechanism further maintains an execution structure that maps the run-time parameter expressions containing interfaced variables to generated code for the block diagram so that the interfaced variables appear in the generated code. This mapping thus allows for interfacing to the interfaced variables in the generated code from any execution framework.
