One of our graduate students at Naval Postgraduate School, a Major in the U.S. Marine Corps, used JGNAT as part of his Master's Degree thesis to create a GUI interface to a Computer Aided Prototyping System (CAPS). There was one problem with the tasking model in the current JGNAT which ACT promise to fix someday. We did a workaround on that. The GUI runs quite well over the JVM. Since that student graduated, one of our other professors is using this GUI in his class on real-time systems. Eventually, another graduate student will take over the system and enhance it as part of a thesis for his/her master's degree in computer science. Richard Riehle
