Glossary
Stateflow notation consists of:
• A set of graphical objects
• A set of nongraphical text-based objects
• Defined relationships between those objects
Parallelism
A system with parallelism can have two or more states that can be active at the
same time. The activity of parallel states is essentially independent.
Parallelism is represented with a parallel (AND) state decomposition.
See the section titled “What Is a State Decomposition?” on page 6-10 for more
information.
Real-Time Workshop
The Real-Time Workshop is an automatic C language code generator for
Simulink. It produces C code directly from Simulink block diagram models and
automatically builds programs that can be run in real-time in a variety of
environments.
See the Real-Time Workshop User’s Guide for more information.
S-function
When using Simulink together with Stateflow for simulation, Stateflow
generates an S-function (MEX-file) for each Stateflow machine to support
model simulation. This generated code is a simulation target and is called the
sfun target within Stateflow.
For more information, see the Using Simulink document.
Semantics
Semantics describe how the notation is interpreted and implemented behind
the scenes. A completed Stateflow diagram communicates how the system will
behave. A Stateflow diagram contains actions associated with transitions and
states. The semantics describe in what sequence these actions take place
during Stateflow diagram execution.
