Wind River integrating Simics with MathWorks' Simulink

Are you using Wind River's Simics and MathWorks' Simulink for simulation and model-based design verification. Now both are integrated helping designers in testing of Simulink controller models on target architecture without the need for hardware boards and debugging tools. Wind River says the integration is more helpful for developing complex systems which require high safety such as aerospace and defense, automotive, and industrial markets. System designers can automatically generate code for embedded deployment and create test benches for system verification, saving the design time by avoiding manually coded errors. Wind River has integrated Simics with Simulink to support processor-in-the-loop (PIL) testing. PIL testing checks that code generated from a Simulink controller model using Embedded Coder will run correctly on the actual processor that will be used in the final target system. "Prior to PIL testing, control algorithms are typically developed and validated on the host, using a high-precision floating point math and with no concern for the implementation system and any cross development tools such as compilers that can impact on-target behavior. The Simics PIL integration for Simulink is available today for all Simics customers." noted in the release by wind River. “With the Simulink–Simics PIL integration, MathWorks customers can reuse their Sim...
