Abstract :
Some guiding principles for the design of open systems suitable for computer-aided control engineering are presented. Some possible architectures are considered, and an assessment is made of the available technologies that might be suitable for an open environment. An analogy is made with the requirements for computer-aided software engineering, for which a reference model has already been developed. It is concluded that such a model might well provide a clear definition of what is needed in computer-aided control engineering.<>
