Abstract
An interactive simulator has been built to serve as a development plat form for High Level Application Code (HLAC). It is built around a powe rful parallel computer that serves as a particle tracking engine. An i ntermediate hardware and software layer incorporates fully the EPICS c ontrol system. Details of the control system are hidden from the HLAC by an isolation layer (AIC) which consists of C++ class libraries. A c losed orbit correction module developed on the simulator is described.
