Abstract
BEACON is a Computer Aided Engineering environment which allows the user to graphically design a real time control system as a series of hierarchical block diagrams. The diagrams constitute a complete documentation of the designed system. These diagrams can thereafter be used to automatically generate both simulation and real-time computer code. BEACON has been used within the General Electric Company to generate production code since the first quarter of 1992. This paper will present the BEACON block-diagram editor, its graphical user interface, and its different modes of operation. The extensive hierarchical modeling capabilities of BEACON will be discussed.
