Latest Patents

David B Varvell holds a patent for a "Multirate Real Time Control System Code Generator." This invention is an automatic computer software code generator designed for multirate real-time control systems. It utilizes a functional library to define various functional blocks that help in constructing a functional description of a control system. Each functional block is associated with a software template that generates a set of software statements for performing computations whenever the software linked to that block is executed. The invention organizes a catalog database that provides a functional description of the control system software to be generated. It also defines the computational relationships through specified combinations of functional blocks. A linking software module organizes the catalog database into separate subsystems, each containing the specified functional blocks with a defined repetition rate and skew. Finally, a code generation software module produces software for the specified control system, including subsystem software routines, a scheduler program, and a software interface for managing data values.
