Description
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is a particular challenging high energy, superconducting machine with respect to the design as well as to the operation. That requires a sophisticated software environment and a good collaboration of the teams involved to transfer the simulation output for desired beam configurations into the control system, verify and check the control system settings, drive the machine to arrive at the desired configuration and to provide an online simulation of the current status of the machine. To support the operation and the progress of comissioning of the LHC, efforts were recently devoted towards the design and implementation of a software framework aimed to use the computing power of the beam dynamics code MAD-X in the framework of the java-based LHC control and measurement environment. In this talk the basic architecture of the online modeling, existing applications and their usage for operation will be presented.
