The MathWorks has speeded up the code generation capability of its flagship Matlab algorithm development tool by up to 160 times, using a speculative-compilation approach, writes Nick Flaherty . By ...

“Fixed-point development usually involves managing a design expressed in several different languages, such as MATLAB, C, assembly, and HDL. This is a time-consuming and error-prone process,” said Dr.

Algorithm developers like to use the MATLAB language to develop this sort of algorithm for several reasons. First, variables in MATLAB can be of many types including scalars, vectors and matrices, so ...

Migrating floating-point algorithms to fixed-point platforms got significantly easier for users of the Mathworks' Matlab model-based development environment. Catalytic's Fixed-Point DSP Studio ...
