BDSim published in IEEE Control Systems Magazine

Happy to share that my paper about BDSim, an open-source block diagram modelling tool for Python, has been published in IEEE Control Systems magazine: the paper on IEEE Xplore.

It greatly extends an earlier article I posted on LinkedIn back in 2022.

This is my first solo publication since “retiring”. I’m still having fun with this package, a soft real-time version is running on RaspberryPi and Arduino on my desk, and a version 0.1 code generator is showing promise… Stay tuned for updates in the nearish future.

If you’re interested in Python for real-world modeling do checkout the amazing tools on PySimHub.
