  • Abstract
    The past years have seen a change of emphasis in process control languages. Most of the software for the early process automation systems developed at the General Electric Process Computer Department was implemented in assembly language. Today, FORTRAN is being used at least partially in many of our applications. Some of our experiences in this area are briefly reviewed and evaluated and an opinion is expressed on what direction future efforts might be expected to take.
