Abstract:
A system for modeling, simulating and analyzing chemical and biochemical reactions includes a modeling environment for constructing a model of a chemical or biochemical system comprising a plurality of chemical reactions. The system also includes a simulation engine accepting as input said constructed model of the chemical or biochemical system and generating as output an expected result. The modeling environment includes a block diagram explorer for displaying a block diagram in a graphical user interface describing the system as a hierarchical network of interconnected blocks. Each block represents a species participating one of the chemical reactions or one of said chemical reactions in the system. The block diagram explorer allows for a user to manipulate and modify the graphical parameters of the block diagram representation to provide insight into the functionality and operation of the system being modeled.
Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments allow users to interactively formulate and solve multivariable feedback control problems. For example, users can solve problems where a plurality of control elements are distributed over one or more feedback loops and need to be jointly tuned to optimize overall performance and robustness of a control system. Embodiments allow users to specify design requirements and objectives in formats familiar to the user. Embodiments can operate on tunable parameters to solve the control problem in a manner that satisfies the design requirements and/or objectives provided by the user.
Abstract:
A computer-readable memory device may include instructions to store data describing a state machine model including source states and destination states. The device may also include instructions to store, for each of the source states, a condition field identifying a condition upon which, when satisfied, the state machine model transitions from the source state to one of the destination states. The device may also include instructions to store, for each of source states, a destination field identifying the one of the destination states. Each of at least two of the source states may identify an identical destination state in the corresponding destination field. Each of at least two of the source states may identify an identical condition in the corresponding condition field.
Abstract:
A method implemented by one or more computers may include receiving data for graphical rendering and distributing a first portion of the data to a first computation process. The method may further include distributing a second portion of the data to a second computation process, where the second computation process is different than the first computation process, creating a first object subtree via the first computation process based on the first portion of the data, and creating a second object subtree via the second computation process based on the second portion of the data. The method may further also include assembling an object tree via a third computation process based on the first object subtree and the second object subtree and rendering a graphical scene based on the assembled object tree.
Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments may programmatically determine the number and locations of breakpoints and table values in a lookup table so as to reduce their counts. In some exemplary embodiments, the minimum number of breakpoints and breakpoint locations that conform with the error tolerance may be determined along with table values for those breakpoints. The exemplary embodiments may determine if a lookup table that conforms with the error tolerance is feasible and may inform a user of the feasibility or infeasibility of generating the lookup table. Where it is feasible to generate the lookup table, the exemplary embodiments may provide automatic programmatic generation of a lookup table with minimal breakpoints and optimal or near-optimal table values.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for performing at least one operation using data in a preferred data layout, while preserving the ability to access the data in an original data layout. The preferred data layout may be independent of the original data layout. The preferred data layout may be selected based on at least one of a characteristic of the data, a characteristic of the computing environment or computing device(s) implementing the computing environment, a characteristic of the at least one operation, or historical performance data. The data may be rearranged or permuted into the preferred layout. A mapping may be determined between the preferred layout and the original layout. During performance of the at least one operation using the data in the preferred layout, another operation may use the mapping to access the data in the original layout.
Abstract:
A method and system automatically generates a display of symbolic equations from a graphical model (or vice versa) which is readable, parametric, and interactive.
Abstract:
Systems and methods may generate or modify a pattern, to search text, utilizing a hierarchical structure. The system and method may receive instructions for generating or modifying the pattern. The system and methods may identify or generate a hierarchical structure containing one or more levels each of which includes one or more objects that store values. The system and method may define a pattern by assigning values to the hierarchical structure when the instructions are for generating the pattern; or may modify one or more values in the hierarchical structure when the instructions are for modifying the pattern. The system and method may receive pattern matching instructions. The system and method may identify, based on the pattern matching instructions and utilizing the hierarchical structure, one or more portions of the program that includes the generated or modified pattern and implement one or more pattern matching functions to provide results.
Abstract:
Systems and methods as disclosed for selecting parameters for use by a system. The parameters can describe a behavior of the system, which can be represented by a model having an input and an output. The model can include an operation representable by a matrix. The parameters can include the input and output ranges of the operation, the dimensions of the matrix, a noise value for the system, and an overflow probability. A design environment can be configured to determine values or ranges of values for one or more of the parameters based on values or ranges of values of the remaining parameters. In some embodiments, the design environment can select, recommend, or validate a choice of datatype, minimum system noise, or the dimensions of the matrix. The model can be used to generate code, which can be used to configure the system to perform the operation.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for services for assisting programming are disclosed. The systems and methods can be used to, during edit time, for program code or data of interest, identify one or more services available to the program code or the data of interest, generating a context for the one or more services, execute code for the one or more services within the context to generate a result for each of the one or more services, analyze the result for each of the one or more services to select a subset of results based on criteria associated with the program code, the data of interest, or the one or more services, and offer, to a user, services corresponding to the subset of results or the subset of results as suggestions to facilitate further development of the program code or use of the data of interest.
