- EPICS CA Gateway Employment in the BEPCII Network
- The EPICS Process Variable Gateway has become a stable, high-performance application that provides access to process variables while minimizing the impact on critical Input-Output Controllers IOCs and implementing additional access security. The additional access security typically prevents write access but is highly configurable. The control network of the BEPCII is...

- Future college major - "Antichemistry"
- Interesting somebody missedsomething they would never think to look for.This is news ?Anti-anti-matersThey didn't release what? I knew about the fact that they had produced anti-mater. They did tell about it, nobody was listening. When the mainstream media gets excited about science, that would be a break-through. And you...

- ProCurve Networking partners with CERN to unlock the secrets of the universe
- ProCurve and CERN CERN — the world's largest and most powerful particle physics laboratory — needed a secure, reliable network capable of handling 15 petabytes of data per year. The logical choice was ProCurve Networking by HP, and CERN has now deployed over 1,000 high-performance ProCurve Switches...

- Cryogenic Magnet Tests for the LHC: Process Operation Using Web-Based Tools and Facilities
- For the Large Hadron Collider under construction at CERN, an essential requirement is the acceptance test of its 1706 Cryo-magnets in cryogenic conditions in a purpose-built facility at CERN. Several teams ensure the proper operation of the infrastructure on a round the clock basis. This paper gives a flavour of...

- An Embedded Epics Controller Based on Ethernet/Serial Box
- The SSRF Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility control system takes the Ethernet as backbone. All kinds of serial devices such as vacuum pumps are connected to Linux IOCs via a kind of Ethernet/serial box made by Moxa company. In the pre-research stage of SSRF, the old model of this Ethernet/serial box...

- Data Acquisition Software for CMS HCAL Testbeams
- Although CMS will not start operation for several years, many subdetector groups have active testbeam programs involving final or near-final electronics. The high-bandwidth electronics require the development of new DAQ systems including hardware and software. This paper presents the design and performance of the DAQ software used for the summer...

- Some of the World's Brightest Physicists Entrust the Power of StorageTek Solutions to Help Protect and Manage Their Irreplaceable Data
- Fermilab is the largest U.S. laboratory for research in high-energy physics and worldwide is second only to CERN, the European Laboratory for Particle Physics. In order to best maximize its resources supporting particle accelerator research and experiments, Fermilab makes extensive use of leading edge resources, including tape storage technology. Because...

- Testing Ethernet Networks for the ATLAS Data Collection System
- This paper reports recent work on Ethernet traffic generation and analysis. The paper uses Gigabit Ethernet NICs running customized embedded software and custom-built 32-port Fast Ethernet boards based on FPGAs to study the behavior of large Ethernet networks. The traffic generation software is able to accommodate many traffic distributions with...

- Optimising LAN Access to Grid Enabled Storage Elements
- When operational, the Large Hadron Collider experiments at CERN will collect tens of petabytes of physics data per year. The worldwide LHC computing grid WLCG will distribute this data to over two hundred Tier-1 and Tier-2 computing centres, enabling particle physicists around the globe to access the data for analysis....

- Receive Descriptor Recycling for Small Packet High Speed Ethernet Traffic
- This paper presents the concept of Receive Descriptor Recycling to significantly reduce the performance drop associated with small packet Gigabit Ethernet traffic. Since limits and trade-offs are inherent when optimising for small packet traffic, all important aspects in this context are covered. Low-level measurements were performed at the CERN LHCb...
