  dSL : Distributed Supervision Language is used as an
				automated distributed language for the control of complex
				industrial processes. dSL is an imperative language with some OO
				concepts. The main concept is to ease the burdon of the
				programmer by offering a centralised view of the process to
				control. This means that a program is specified as if all
				actuators and sensors are available without any communication.
				The dSL distributer distributes the centralised code into
				as many programs as there are different sites, without the
				developper's intervention. The dSL project is funded by la région Bruxelles
				Capitale and with collaboration of Macq Electronique. Read more about it... |

  Looking for a
			 
			  but most of all reliable communication protocol for legOS/BrickOS
			on top of LNP ? You've come to the right place. Free and open source.
			It is based on the
			
			  alternating bit protocol,
			and is currently compiled on Linux
			with BrickOS 0.9.0 and the GNU RCX tools/cross
			compiler. multithreaded
			   threadsafe
			   synchronous/asynchronous
			   clean
			   small
			   efficient
			 You will need BrickOs (LegOS) with the gcc crosscompiler to get this one running.
			If you have legOS/BrickOS running, you should be ok.
 
 UPDATE March 10, 2005:
 A new release is out. Major improvements include
 
				Enhanced threading. Messages are sent immediately and timers prevent flooding. Spectacular increase in throughput.Some new code is added allowing you to send messages longer than 253 bytesCompatible with brickOs 0.9.0. Note however that 0.9.0 is not a stable release. 
 
			  DocsRunning Linux on i386? Cool. Grab these RPMs to get things started right away. You'll
			need the GNU RCX tools to compile the legOS kernel, the ab-protocol library and your own
			programs.Download
			  Changelog
