Stateflow

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Stateflow is an interactive design and simulation tool for event-driven systems that was developed by The MathWorks. Stateflow provides the language elements required to describe complex logic in a natural, readable, and understandable form. It is tightly integrated with MATLAB and Simulink, providing an efficient environment for designing embedded systems that contain control, supervisory, and mode logic.

Stateflow charts enable the graphical representation of hierarchical and parallel states and the event-driven transitions between them. Stateflow augments traditional Harel statecharts with the capabilities of control flow, MATLAB and graphical functions, truth tables, temporal operators, directed-event broadcasting, and support for integrating hand-written C code.
