Auto Simulate Simulink Model

I want to automate the process of capturing and saving the video from a wireless cam but in simulink model it is required to start simulation I need to know if I can automate start simulation procedure in an application.

Iam not sure what kind of automation you need. You may use timer() object:

tim1=timer('TimerFcn', ' sim(''YourSimulation.mdl'') ', ... 
             'Period', 9.5, 'ExecutionMode', 'fixedRate');
start(tim1);

This would fire up your simulation every 9.5 sec.

To stop

stop(tim1);

Automating the simulation of a Simulink model from MATLAB can be done using the sim command.
