Can Teams Using Simulink Collaborate on Their Designs?
Modeling and simulation have been the cornerstone for Model-Based Design. With advances in computing technologies, recent trends in modeling have focused on building higher-fidelity models that result in better and more robust designs. The result has been the proliferation of large-scale projects that involve multidisciplinary groups of engineers that must collaborate to realize these models. Associated with these workflows are inherent complexities arising out of engineers having to organize, manage, and revision control files that contain algorithm implementations, data, utilities, and associated report artifacts. Consequently, the complexity faced by the engineer is twofold: design and file management. With attention divided between these two tasks, the productivity and effectiveness of the engineer is diminished. At the team level, interdependencies arising out of engineers contributing to a single design in a project-based setting complicate the matter further. The result has been a trend toward ad hoc project management where engineers have to learn to work with source control tools or depend heavily on a configuration management specialist for basic tasks. This can lead to process bottlenecks being created, or the abandonment of the process altogether. Lessons and best practices learned from project workflows are lost and not transferable to other projects. This session explores features introduced in Simulink that can help you answer the collaboration question with a resounding "yes."
