Abstract

A development tool combines advantages of a simulation tool with an object-oriented modeling tool, including a real-time mathematical matrix library and an object model. The tool is applicable to any intelligent control system. A composite object group (COG) contains both sampled-data and event-driven capabilities. Mapping the computing resources of a computing device throughout the hierarchy of a control system is provided for modes, executable programs and threads of a processor. Within a given processor, each component of a control system may be assigned to individual execution threads within that processor simply by naming a thread.
