Description
Simulink is an integrated environment for prototyping and simulating
the
transient response of dynamical systems. Simulink is built on MATLAB
numeric capabilities, but provides a high-level view of a system as a
collection of building blocks that can be connected to model a variety
of dynamical systems. Typical Simulink building blocks include
I/O and
processing capabilities, and these blocks can be assembled and
recombined in order to prototype real-world systems quickly, cheaply,
and accurately.
Features
Simulink includes all the features required to model complex transient
phenomena, including extensibility via application-specific building
blocks that enable capturing domain-specific system responses.
Simulink's features include a powerful high-level visual programming
environment, and the capability to rapidly encapsulate various forms of
mathematical relations, including systems of differential and algebraic
equations. Simulink includes the capability of creating C code
for programming embedded systems, or for performing Simulink-tested
modules within more traditional computational simulations.
