Creating new model or block instances during run-time...

I am creating a model of a packet network (SimEvent and StateFlow) in which I have multiple transmitters and receivers. All transmitters are controlled by a single scheduler.

I would like to add new transmitters to the network during execution (e.g. click a button to add/remove transmitters).

Similarly, the scheduler needs to implement a poller for each transmitter instance. The poller is currently implemented in StateFlow.

Is there a way to create a model or block (the transmitter) and have new instances of it generated during run-time? If so, how?

Likewise, how would I instantiate a new poller instance when a new transmitter is created?

What you can do, is pause simulation, add a block then continue simulation using

set_param('yourmodel','SimulationCommand','pause')

Then use add_block, and add_line command to add block and connections. Then add

set_param('yourmodel','SimulationCommand','continue')
