  1. Rapid Application Development Environmentbased on LabVIEW Adriaan Rijllart CERN EN-ICE CS Workshop, GSI, February 26-27, 2009

  2. Why? Adriaan Rijllart CERN EN-ICE

  3. Identified controls applications domains • Beam Control JAVA • SCADA PVSS • Test & Development LabVIEW, MatLab, scripts, etc. Rapid Application Development Environment (RADE) Adriaan Rijllart CERN EN-ICE

  4. Test & Development applications characteristics • Short development time applications (i.e. specific analysis) • Rapidly evolving applications (i.e. machine development) • Punctually used applications (i.e. expert diagnostics) • Stand-alone systems (i.e. test facilities) Adriaan Rijllart CERN EN-ICE

  5. LabVIEW programming language our contribution Requirements • Fast programming • Drag and drop GUI development • Rapid learning curve • Wide range of analysis libraries • Light/independent environment • Integration with the control infrastructure Adriaan Rijllart CERN EN-ICE

  6. Other reasons for choosing LabVIEW • We have a deep experience (more then 10 years) • CERN site license since many years • Commonly used in accelerators control in other labs: • LabVIEW is the second most used programming language used for accelerator control, as shown in ICALEPCS2007 presentations • A world wide LabVIEW Accelerator User Group has been set up by ORNL during ICALEPCS2007 • EPICS and Tango have made a LabVIEW interface to their environments, mainly for the same reasons (rapid application development) Adriaan Rijllart CERN EN-ICE

  7. …and for the accelerators at CERN? LabVIEW is widely used (with custom libraries made by equipment groups) Some examples … Adriaan Rijllart CERN EN-ICE
