At Deakin University a current project involves the rapid prototyping
of real-time systems.  With respect to the work completed a limited system
can be designed, built and executed.

Briefly:
 - a graphical hierarchical network of processes, Mealy machines and
   environmental terminators can be created.  Completed.
 - the network can be input to a compiler to produce Smalltalk-80
   code.  Partially completed.
 - the prototyped system can then be executed by running the Smalltalk-80
   code.  Partially completed.

BTW, I would like:
 - anyone to discuss their experience,
 - a company contact address,
concerning any of the following:
 - Teamwork/ES.
 - Statemate.
 - Foresight.
 - Excelerator/TRS.
