  • Abstract
    The authors present an implementation of CAL (Common Application Language) as an integral part of a practical home automation system. CAL is the medium through which users submit their requests to the system for translation and transmission onto the CEBus. Such a system is in the process of being designed and implemented according to all present specifications set forth by the EIA (Electronic Industries Association). Attention is given here to CAL´s command syntax, supervisor and modules, and hardware and software
