The V-cycle

• From function prototyping to embedded real-time system implementation
• Graphical programming: Block diagrams and finite state-machines (Matlab/Stateflow).
• Automatic C-code generation
• Hardware-in-the-loop-simulation
• Open system architecture

Matlab/Simulink/Stateflow

• High-level programming of guidance, navigation and control systems using block libraries.
• Libraries for signal processing and datalogging.
• Finite state machines

Opal

• Provides an extended functonality in Simulink with software for I/O-cards, automatic generation of C-code and downloading to one or more target PCs onboard the vessels running QNX.
• Allows the user to run Labview on the host PC onshore. Grapical userface for the operator.
