N2 - This paper will evaluate the benefit of modeling in automation and control education, in analyzing the problem or application, and structuring and implementing its solution, i.e. a control program in IEC 61131-3. The evaluated notations are the Unified Modeling Language (UML) and the Idiomatic Control Language (ICL): UML as nearly standard in computer science and ICL as powerful modeling notation from the distributed control systems world (DCS). A lab experiment was integrated in a course for bachelor and master students from electrical engineering and applied computer science.
