Glossary-2
expression
folding
Code optimization technique that minimizes the computation of intermediate
results at block outputs and the storage of such results in temporary buffers or
variables. It can dramatically improve the efficiency of generated code,
achieving results that compare favorably with hand-optimized code.
file extensions The table below lists the file extensions associated with Simulink, the Target
Language Compiler, and Real-Time Workshop.
generic
real-time (GRT)
target
Target configuration that generates model code for a real-time system, with the
resulting code executed on your workstation. (Note that execution is not tied to
a real-time clock.) You can use GRT as a starting point for targeting custom
hardware.
