Linux ERT target

Embedded Coder® allows to compile a model of designed control system

-The Linux ERT has been initially developed at <a href="#dce">DCE of
-CTU</a> in order to create a dynamic environment model for hardware
-(airplane) in the loop testing of a fly-by-wire system
-at <a href="http://www.aero.cz/en">AERO Vodochody a.s.</a>. Simulink
-has been run on Windows host computer initially and code generated for
-GNU/Linux embedded target system was compiled
-under <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mingw">MinGW/MSYS</a>
-environment and then uploaded to PowerPC
-based <a href="http://rtime.felk.cvut.cz/hw/index.php/Boa5200">BOA5200</a>
-computer. The target computer was equipped with two CAN
-interfaces. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canopen">CANopen</a>
-blockset based on <a href="http://canfestival.org/">CANfestival</a>
-project was used to control distributed servosystem used to simulate
-fly-by-wire system load. Simulink CANopen blockset integrates a
-<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socketcan">SocketCAN</a> driver configuration and CAN messages
-processing support to the generated code and enables the user to develop distributed embedded
-control applications with CANopen communication.</p>
