Dear Hackers, I am new to Ptolemy. I am intrigued by Ptolemy particularly because if is freely available and I can use it both personally and at work. I would like to simulate a radar system with it. I am having a little trouble deciding which domain to use. What I am would like to do is set up is some sort of a system with a master clock that fires the transmitter, and delays to simulate ground returns and system timings that will all be off of a master clock. There will be digital track loops who will all be synchronous with this clock. I there a good domain to accomplish this ? I am having a little trouble figuring out how to do to system timing. I long for a way to have stuff happen on clock edges as an event.
Also, I have access to matlab/simulink but I am a mathcad user, so I am kind of the decision point as to what I should invest my time in learning. I also have access to vissim which came with my last Mathcad. Will Ptolemy be around for a while and be supported ? Does it compare well with these other tools ? I know this is like asking a politician who I should vote for but anyway... Also I tried to get into the ftp site to look up the archives but didn't get in. I tried ftp://www.pub/ptolemy/mailing-lists/ptolemy-hackers.archive in my browser but this didn't work. Please forgive these questions, I know they probably sound trivial to you all.
