Questions tagged [stateflow]

Stateflow is an toolbox (extension) of Matlab from Mathworks. It is a commercial, and proprietary toolset.

Generally, Stateflow extends Simulink with the ability to design and test state machines. It is commonly used in control design, where algorithms can be either matlab scripts & formulas, simulink blocks or embedded code (in the form of so-called S-functions).

Code generation is supported on the host platform, but for target code additional tools are required (such as real time Workshop).

Advantages compared to software-only tooling (like IBM Rhapsody):

• use with hardware (in the loop)
• seemless integration with Simulink

Disadvantages compared to software-only tooling:

• cost for code generation
