The development of control programs for PLCs is mainly carried out by direct implementation. We propose to switch to formal methods to obtain these control laws. For this we use a task-based structural analysis approach assisted by algebraic synthesis. We obtain a control law in ST language allowing to ensure the functional behaviour defined in the specifications. This makes the generation of PLC programs more reliable and efficient.
