Abstract :
This paper presents a software environment for the rapid prototyping of CAD systems, the Global Control Environment (GCE). It basically provides a mechanism to define the user interface and to study possible interactions between internal applications without having to cope with a programming language. The GCE tool is currently used for the design of the MODES system, an environment for the automatic generation of behavioral models from high-level specifications
