C++ Traceability Architecture for HDL Coder

Project Overview

At MathWorks, the focus was on bridging high-level model designs with low-level hardware generation, significantly accelerating customer debugging processes.

Technical Implementation

• Code Traceability: Architected a C++ traceability feature mapping generated HDL directly back to Simulink blocks.
• IR Expansion: Expanded the internal Intermediate Representation (IR) to support structs, which enhanced code generation capabilities for complex customer models.
• UX Collaboration: Redesigned the HDL Coder GUI to improve usability and reduce configuration errors.
