9 Conclusions

This work was aimed at comparing two automatic code generating tools and find

which of these tools is more suitable for Haldex Traction. Many aspects were

tested and the results were evaluated.

TargetLink and Real-Time Workshop Embedded Coder are two powerful tools for

automatic code generation. Most functionalities can be achieved in both tools.

For first time users TargetLink can be found easier to manage because of the

simple interface and the practical way in finding all relevant options. RTW EC

can be easy to manage after some practice.

Real-Time Workshop Embedded Coder supports almost all blocks for code

generation but not all blocks support fixed-point. In TargetLink many Simulink

blocks are supported or have corresponding blocks in TargetLink but all these

blocks support fixed-point. Both TargetLink and RTW EC support most relevant

blocks for generating code for control systems if the blocks are used wisely.

The code generated from both tools give the same overall performance as the

handwritten code when running on the target. However there are some differences

in execution time and memory requirements where TargetLink gives a faster

execution time and better results regarding memory usage.

Both TargetLink and RTW EC generate well documented code that follows the

Simulink model flow which makes it easier for the user to understand the

generated code.

TargetLink is used by Haldex Brake in Landskrona and RTW EC is used by

Haldex Brake in UK. Both partners are happy with their choice but Haldex

Traction has its own requirements and priorities that should be taken into

consideration.
