Lustre (programming language)

Lustre is a formally defined, declarative, and synchronous dataflow programming language, for programming reactive systems. It began as a research project in the early 1980s. In 1993, it progressed to practical, industrial use, in a commercial product, as the core language of the industrial environment SCADE, developed by Esterel Technologies. It is now used for critical control software in aircraft, helicopters, and nuclear power plants.
