I would like to know if there are any documentary stories about Forth's application for Industrial controls, such as to open/close control valves and other actuators based on input data from sensors, in real-time for process control. Comparision of C versus Forth for above types of applications. Since Forth is it's own operating system, how does it compare with other commercial real-time operating systems. Any comments and pointers to sources relevant to computerised process control will be greatly appreciated, since this is part of my Master's degree in EE thesis. Lastly, what would be a good chip, DSP's compared to '386 or others in general for these applications. Thanks and Regards, Raju
