Yes we do.

Ha ha.
I always thought, Real men use assembly language.

No, no, no. Real programmers write Fortran.

Write in G,...LabView. Don't need those other languages.

A little more detail about what you are trying to do
would help. If this is a homework problem you will get
different answers than if you are trying to build and
sell a device.

It's not free, but Mathworks sells a product called Real-Time Workshop
that is advertised as generating C code from Simulink and Matlab code.
I haven't used it, but it seems worth investigating if you are already
modeling in Matlab. My guess is that the C code would often need hand-
optimizing to meet performance requirements.

Hi Nina,
Have you considered spuc?
http://spuc.sourceforge.net/
I just learned about it here myself a few days ago, so I don't
have any experience with it and can't comment on its properties.

There are several different issues here:
1) The algorithm:
output = F(input)
2) The integration of an algorithm into a system:
infile = fopen("foo.bar","rb")
outfile = fopen("bar.foo","wb")
input = fgetc(file)
output = F(input)
fputc(output, outfile)
3) The complete solution of the particular problem:
"A modem should be built by Friday. It should work very good."
Those are the three completely different tasks; they require different
approach and completely different knowledge. The pricing is different,
too. The OP is talking about (1) here, is she?

Well, if we're going to get _that_ commercial, I do that too.
Whoever you chose, whether it's Vladimir, me, or someone around the
block in your home town, make sure that they understand what _you're_
doing with _your_ software and _your_ hardware; it's awfully
disappointing to get the worlds best application for someone else's
situation.

Do you need to implement control loops in software?
"Applied Control Theory for Embedded Systems" gives you just what it says.
