ALEXANDRIA, Va., Sept. 8 -- United States Patent no. 12,730,953, issued on Sept. 8, was assigned to The Math Works Inc. (Natick, Mass.).

"Systems and methods for deploying frame-based simulation models on programmable logic devices" was invented by Kiran K. Kintali (Needham, Mass.), Navaneetha K. Ruthramoorthy (Ashland, Mass.) and Megan N. Carpenter (Natick, Mass.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "Systems and methods transform frame-based algorithms into revised algorithms having the same behavior as the frame-based algorithms, but that can be synthesized in hardware. The frame-based algorithm may be represented by an executable simulation model, such as a block diagram model."

The patent was f...
