An extensible object-oriented executor for the Timeliner user interface language

Timeliner is a time-oriented scripting language and execution environment used on the International Space Station. This project describes the creation of a new version of the executor, using Java technology. This executor is more modular, extensible, and easier to maintain than the existing Timeliner system, which is written in Ada. This executor, in conjunction with a previously developed Java compiler, completes the Next Generation Timeliner system. This system can now compile and execute many test scripts, including a self contained simulation.
