WORKSHOP - JCOP-III - LHC Experiments Joint Controls Project (2/2)

by CERN

To reduce duplication of effort in an era of ever decreasing resources, the management of the four LHC experiments set up a Joint Controls Project (JCOP) at the beginning of 1998 in order to prepare the development of the Detector Control Systems (DCS). A great deal of work has been done since that time and in particular many technology choices have been made which are now being supported. Furthermore, much development has been done with these technologies and many solutions are available from which the experiments can now benefit, e.g. PVSS and the JCOP Framework. Therefore, a third JCOP workshop is being held in order that these technologies, the solutions based on them, as well as the experience already gained can be presented. This workshop will provide the opportunity to obtain an overview of the status of the controls activities in each of the experiments and to discuss the future priorities and direction of JCOP. Finally, it will afford an opportunity for cross-fertilisation between the various sub-detector teams and for these to benefit from each other's work and experience.

Organiser(s): Wayne Salter / IT Division

Note: This workshop is aimed primarily at the LHC experiment controls community, although all other interested parties are welcome.
