RTI Connext for Simulink DDS Blockset

Real-Time Innovations (RTI) is the largest software framework provider for Autonomous and Distributed Systems. RTI Connext® is a suite based on the Data Distribution Service (DDS) standard, that enables applications to securely share information in real time and work as one integrated system. RTI Connext provides a comprehensive software library, a set of development and monitoring tools, and many infrastructure services that support use cases, such as, data record and replay, connect systems across wide area networks, bridge to other protocols, and integrate with cloud systems environments.

The MathWorks DDS Blockset application is fully integrated with RTI Connext for easy development of Simulink® applications that can be distributed on a network using DDS for communication. DDS Blockset provides engineers with DDS custom blocks to model DDS communication between Simulink and pure DDS applications without custom coding. System designers and application developers can incorporate RTI Connext into their Simulink designs as virtual components, ready to connect to other Simulink and non-Simulink components through the DDS databus.

Users can generate code from Simulink models and deploy their models integrated with RTI Connext DDS.
