Automatic Code Generation from Stateflow® for Palm OS® Handhelds: a Tutorial
by David Maclay
Automatic code generation from Stateflow® is frequently associated with embedded implementation of control or DSP algorithms. However, the utility of Stateflow extends beyond these traditional areas into more general application development, including user interface and general purpose algorithm design. This article explains how Stateflow, along with the standard Palm OS development tools, can be used to develop a complete application for a handheld device.

MATLAB Add-in for Visual Studio: Using M-files in Visual C++ Development System™
by Ophir Herbst
Many MATLAB applications require Visual C++ Development System™ as part of the development process. Common examples include generation of stand-alone C/C++ applications from M-files, creation and debugging of C-MEX files for MATLAB, and the integration of M-files in C++ applications. The MATLAB Add-in for Visual Studio automates the task of bringing MATLAB code into Visual C++. It streamlines Visual C++ projects by setting the library and include paths, defining the constants needed, and the libraries to be included for use with compiled M-files. Furthermore, the MATLAB Add-in for Visual Studio uses the MATLAB MCC and MEX commands, eliminating the manual effort of calling these commands with the right parameters to compile the M- or C- files. read more
Exporting Figures for Publication: Part 2
by Ben Hinkle
The article "Exporting Figures for Publication" in the June 2000 MATLAB Digest introduced the MATLAB function exportfig.m as a tool to help produce publication-quality output of figures and plots. The main goal of the function is to make it easier to control the size, the font sizes, the line widths and the color of the output. This article describes some of the features in a new version of exportfig.m and introduces three new functions: previewfig.m, applytofig.m and restorefig.m to complement the functionality of exportfig.m. read more
