"The EMC is part of a broader industry group, the Open Modular Architecture
Controller. The purpose of the group is to establish a specific set of APIs
to be used by vendors to sell controller products and services to the
aerospace and automotive industry. EMC participation is focused on validating
the APIs and developing measures of conformance."

The file:
ftp://ftp.isd.mel.nist.gov/pub/emc/emcsoft/winnt/emcdemo.exe
is a self extracting archive that has the source and pre-compiled executables
in it. All of the EMC source code, and the source code of the Real-time
Control System that underlies it is in the public domain. As a matter of
fact, the Linux version is distributed as source only and has to be compiled
by the end user. I wasn't sure that the source was in the above file, nor had
I ever run it, so I downloaded the whole 12MB file just so that I could
provide a good answer to your questions. I installed it on my own Win95
machine, but I couldn't get it to run. It couldn't find WS2_32.dll. I'll have
to work on this and get back to you. Another issue is that it uses the Java
based user interface, while most people running the Linux version are using
the tcl/tk (or X-windows) interface. Tcl/tk is available for Windows, so I'll
have to see what's involved in getting that to work.
