Abstract
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has been using the Real-time Control System (RCS) Reference Model Architecture for building control systems based on a hierarchy of cyclically executing control modules. This paper describes the work done to build Java tools that allow developers to lay out their hierarchy according to RCS tenets and view or change the inputs and outputs of each module at run-time.
