Following the two very successful editions of the PLC & Interlock Workshop (kindly hosted at ESS in 2013 and ITER in 2014) many colleagues have expressed the wish to continue this very fruitful collaboration in the domain of PLC/COTS based Interlock and Protection Systems.
The LHC and its injector complex will be at that time in the period of their yearly shut-down (and start of re-commissioning). We therefore intend to profit from this fact and interleave the presentations of this Workshop edition with a series of on-site visits and hands-on workshops on protection related PLC systems operational in our accelerator chain to allow for a maximum of exchange between the various teams.
