Abstract
A tool for enabling a user, such as a programmer and a designer, to identify patterns in a program or model and to determine duplicated portions of the program or model that have the same or similar pattern is disclosed. The tool may replace the duplicated portions of the program or model with a sub-program or sub-model that can be shared for the duplicated portions. Code for the sub-model may be used for the simulation or generated code for the duplicated portions of the program or model in the simulation or code generation of the program or model. The pattern identification may be used to establish a modeling standard or style by determining common patterns of multiple models provided by a user. The modeling standard or style can then be used to determine whether a block diagram model complies with the modeling standards or styles.
