Louisiana State University Center for Advanced Microstructures and Devices (CAMD) began a control system upgrade project in early 1997. At the time, the storage ring was controlled by a VAX/VMS system, primarily using CAMAC for I/O. The…
In this work, a composite economic model predictive control (CEMPC) is proposed for the optimal operation of a stand-alone integrated energy system (IES). Time-scale multiplicity exists in IESs dynamics is taken into account and addressed…
This paper presents the development of a new software in order to manage objects, robots and mannequins in using the possibilities given by the haptic feedback of the Phantom desktop devices. The haptic device provides 6 positional degree…
Control system middle layers act as a co-ordination and communication bridge between end users, including operators, system experts, scientists, and experimental users, and the low-level control system interface. This article describes a…
This article describes concepts and mechanisms used in porting of EPICS (Experimental Physical and Industrial Control System) codes to platform of operating system UNIX. Without destruction of EPICS architecture, new features of EPICS…
Many large accelerator facilities have adopted the open-source EPICS software as the quasi-industry standard for control systems. They typically have access to their own electronics laboratory and dedicated personnel for control system…
The EPICS based control system of the ISAC radioactive beam facility uses the CapFast schematic editor to construct the IOC function-block databases. This allows a self-documenting graphical representation of the IOC software using a…
Each accelerator control system has a variety of measurement devices. One of the most common types of instrument interfaces used for their control is a serial (RS-232) bus. It is inexpensive and adequate for relatively simple measurement…
The Allen-Bradley ControlLogix line of pro-grammable logic controllers (PLCs) offers several in-terfaces: Ethernet, ControlNet, DeviceNet, RS-232 and others. The ControlLogix Ethernet interface module 1756-ENET uses EtherNet/IP, the…
VPIC is a general purpose Particle-in-Cell simulation code for modeling plasma phenomena such as magnetic reconnection, fusion, solar weather, and laser-plasma interaction in three dimensions using large numbers of particles. VPIC's…
We report on recent improvements of the Atacama Pathfinder Experiment Control System (APECS) to cope with the ever increasing data rates and volumes. Also the very wide bandwidths of current instruments required switching to vectorized…
Model Predictive Control (MPC) is a powerful and flexible design tool of high-performance controllers for physical systems in the presence of input and output constraints. A challenge for the practitioner applying MPC is the need of tuning…
The silicon pixel sensor is the core component of the vertex detector for the Circular Electron Positron Collider~(CEPC). The JadePix3 is a full-function large-size CMOS chip designed for the CEPC vertex detector. To test all the functions…
FPGA-level emulation is a key step in pre-silicon chip design validation. However, emulating large-scale multi-core systems increasingly exceed the hardware resource capacity of a single FPGA, limiting the feasibility of full-system…
In this paper, we propose an enhanced preamble based media access control mechanism (E-PMAC), which can be applied in power line communication (PLC) network for Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). We introduce detailed technologies used…
The upgrade of the ALICE TPC will allow the experiment to cope with the high interaction rates foreseen for the forthcoming Run 3 and Run 4 at the CERN LHC. In this article, we describe the design of new readout chambers and front-end…
The VEPP-4 control system was designed almost 20 years ago as CAMAC-based distributed control system. Today the main peculiarity of the upgraded VEPP-4 control system is the employment of obsolete CAMAC-embedded 24-bit Odrenok computers in…
CEA Irfu Saclay is involved as partner in the ESS accelerator construction through different work-packages: controls for several RF test stands, for cryomodule demonstrators, for the RFQ coupler test and for the conditioning around 120…
CBM (Compressed Baryonic Matter) is mainly used to study QCD phase diagram of strong interactions in high and moderate temperature region. Before the next generation GBTx based CBM DAQ system is built up, the DPB (Data Processing Board)…
