DRAKON
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
DRAKON is a visual algorithmic language developed for the Buran space project. Its development, started in 1986, was directed by Vladimir Parondzhanov. The goal was to replace specialised languages PROL2, DIPOL and LAKS used in the Buran project with one universal language.
The work was finished in 1998 (5 years after the Buran project was officially closed), when an automated CASE programming system called "Grafit-Floks" was developed.
After that it was used in Sea Launch and other space projects.
DRAKON rules for creating diagrams are cognitively optimised for easy comprehension, making it a tool for intelligence augmentation.
