Rapid control prototyping (RCP) is a new technology that allows engineers to reduce the development time of new control algorithms. RCP enables a rapid transition from block diagram to real time operation on target hardware, whichdrives the real object under control. This thesis contains an overview and analysis of the tools and methods that enable rapid implementation and verification of control algorithms. Furthermore, the thesis deals with problems encountered when integrating target hardware into block programming tools. The new method is proposed, which enables rapid and easy integration oftarget hardware into different block programming tools. The method is based on Java programming language and data in XML format. The proposed method was verified by performing a case study using MATLAB/Simulink and Scilab/Scicos tools and DSP-based control hardware. The second part of the thesis deals withproblems with web-based laboratories. Tools and technologies that enable remote experiment development in the field of automatic control are analyzed. The new method that enables rapid implementation of remote experiments based on embedded control systems is proposed and verified on the case of ComVIEW tool, developed by using LabVIEW. The last part of the thesis contains information about a remote laboratory, including its structure, principles of operation, booking system, and experiments visualization. In addition, the thesis provides information about some remote control experiments and results of a user questionnaire.
