Our life is full of smart systems like mobile phone, laptops etc. These systems are embedded with software. Programmers have to write thousands of thousand line codes to implement a complex algorithm on system. This consumes lots of time and effort to develop correct software. To address this problem MathWorks came with ‘model based design’. […]
