Specification requirement of temporal HILS environment for RCP of DMS

Computer assisted development tools have long been the research area in the control domain. This paper introduces original work on specification requirement of computer assisted development platform, in terms of HILS (hardware-in-the-loop-simulation) environment, for RCP (rapid control prototyping) of distributed mechatronic systems (DMS). The research motivation comes from the fact that from control architecture point of view, most of the mechatronic systems are distributed in nature and presently available RCP tools and systems do not provide operational features as far as real-time DCN (distributed control network) is concerned.
