Where is the argument ? Was that a 5-minute argument, or the full half hour? ;-) http://www.infidels.org/news/athe...ython.html I said:
Of course, whether an entirely diagramatic ("graphical") tool can generate efficient implementations is an entirely different question... Raghunathan said:
... But the implementations need ultra fast processors, tons of memory and other resources to execute even at moderate levels. That sounds like a pretty good working definition of "inefficient" to me...! ;-) Actually, visualState from IAR is a graphical tool for creating finite state machines: IAR said:
The first state machine graphical design tool generating highly compact C code for embedded systems
http://www.iar.com/Products/VS I've built one of their example projects, and run it in the Keil simulator, and it is certainly not out of the question for an 8051. I haven't done a comparison with a "hand-written" implementation... Previously, on 8052.com: http://www.8052.com/forum/read.phtml?id=74749 |
