Control System Design Language Implementation of a Gas Turbine Starting Controller.

Abstract

This thesis investigates the feasibility and utility of the Computer System Design Language (CSDL) and its design environment. The primary purpose of this design system is to automatically design microprocessor-based controller prototypes given a description of the controller's behavior. CSDL is used to create a highly structured behavioral description which is used by the design environment to create a software and hardware listing. A 'generic' gas turbine engine start malfunction controller is developed using CSDL and tested on a Prolog development system. Originator-supplied keywords include: microcomputer, controller, CAD, CAD/CAM, automated design, and controller design.
