• What is Model-Based Design with Simulink?

  Model-Based Design (MBD) is a structured approach that uses models throughout the development process to enhance the delivery of complex systems. Using Model-Based Design with MATLAB and Simulink helps shorten development cycles and can reduce development time by 50% or more.

• What Simulink toolboxes do I need?
  The toolboxes you need depend on the complexity and nature of your project. We offer free consultation calls where our application engineers and industry experts can help you determine the right mix of toolboxes to efficiently achieve your project goals.

• What is Simulink Test?
  Simulink Test toolbox provides tools for creating, managing, and executing simulation-based tests of models, generated code, and hardware. It includes templates for functional, unit, regression, and back-to-back testing using SIL, PIL, and HIL modes.

  You can create non-intrusive test harnesses, define requirements-based assessments, and specify test inputs, outputs, and tolerances in formats such as Excel.

  It also includes a Test Sequence block, a test manager, and Observer blocks for signal access without altering the model. Tests can be organized and executed in parallel or on continuous integration systems.

  Simulink Test supports requirement tracing and generating test coverage reports.

  It is also qualifiable by industry-standard certification kits for ISO 26262, IEC 61508, DO-178, and DO-254.
