Description
The availability of the LHC control system has been excellent in 2016 with only 0.11% of the machine unavailability attributed to Controls. Nevertheless, many other criteria can be maximised in order to improve the LHC control system and this talk focuses on the user experience. After having identified the main users, we detail some of the perceived problems, e.g. long development cycles, and areas where improvements can be done such as the interface standardization and integrated tooling. Finally, we propose organizational and technical solutions that we want to apply in the near future to try and optimise the user experience.
