Note As of R2009a, Simulink® Parameter Estimation™ and Simulink® Response Optimization™ functionality are merged into a new product, Simulink Design Optimization. Simulink Parameter Estimation and Simulink Response Optimization are no longer available. |
New features and changes introduced in this version are:
If you have the Parallel Computing Toolbox™ software installed, you can use parallel computing to speed up estimating parameters of a Simulink model. The parallel computing option is available in the Nonlinear least squares, Gradient descent and Pattern search algorithms. You can enable this option from either the GUI or at the command line.
Using parallel computing can speed up the estimation time in the following situations:
The model contains a large number of parameters to estimate.
The model is complex and takes a long time to simulate.
For more information about using parallel computing for estimating model parameters, see Speedup Using Parallel Computing in the Simulink Design Optimization documentation.
The Simulink Design Optimization demos have been categorized into the following new categories:
Parameter Estimation in Simulink
Response Optimization in Simulink
Response Optimization in SISO Design Tool
Design Optimization Using Parallel Computing
Adaptive Lookup Tables
To open the Simulink Design Optimization demos, type
demo simulink 'simulink design optimization'
at the MATLAB prompt.
Prior to R14, Simulink Response Optimization software was called Nonlinear Control Design Blockset software. If you are upgrading from Nonlinear Control Design Blockset software, your models will not work with Simulink Design Optimization software. To make the models compatible with Simulink Design Optimization software, use ncdupdate.
