Abstract

The novelty of this paper is mainly the integration of multi-disciplinary software tools into a control software design environment, namely the Integrated Design Notation (IDN). The IDN supports the design, development and implementation of decentralised distributed control systems. This new environment is based on the UML meta-model standard. The translation process to integrate a control software tool (Simulink) and a process control standard (SFC) into the IDN are described. An approach for generating Java code automatically from UML also is proposed. The Java code generated is tested on a real-time target hardware architecture.
