%X We strive to allow a control system designer the power of
   designing control computer code concurrently and generating
   it efficiently, in spite of her or his lack of skills in
   software engineering. This is important for many reasons.
   Nowdays, it is impossible to separate control engineering
   from software engineering. There is no way of implementing
   control strategies other than to transform them into
   computer code for the chosen processing target. Usually,
   there are not so many general\-purpose programmers available
   in control engineering research teams in companies and
   universities. In these cases, software development
   techniques suffer from insufficient knowledge in disciplines
   of software modelling, concurrency, reusability and testing.
   This paper develops a case study whose solution is based
   upon the CSP principles supported by the Communicating
   Threads libraries developed at Twente and argues why the
   techniques are accessible to non\-computing\-specialist
   control engineers.
