Abstract
The control software which can improve the development efficiency of a control system using a plurality of processing units by absorbing the difference due to the data exchange through a shared storage area is provided.
The control software includes the same interface as the software part for network communication, and by making, as a part, the processing software for reading and writing the data from and into the storage area shared by said plurality of the processing units, the data exchange by the shared storage area is handled as one of communication physical layers thereby to construct a control system.
