EPICS Framework Implementation

By Cosylab

Thus, we proposed the EPICS framework to be used for the ELI-NP GBS control system and this was accepted by the Consortium. EPICS is an open-source software infrastructure, optimised for building large distributed control systems to operate devices such as particle accelerators, large experiments and major telescopes. Cosylab’s EPICS implementation for the ELI-NP GBS is based on a modular control system design that leverages solutions developed at other similar facilities. Even “out of the box” EPICS, with its set of strict processes and conventions, ensures that any custom and project-specific development can be performed in a standardized and coherent manner.
