European Southern
Observatory
Instrument
Control Systems Seminar 2019
11.11 - 14.11.2019
Overview
The purpose of the seminar is to provide the
instrument developers with an overview of the ELT hardware and software
development platform, which will be used for implementing the control of the
instruments. It is also an opportunity to present and explain the
framework solutions being developed by ESO in the area of instrument control
and get immediate feedback from the participants.
Who might be interested in attending the seminar:
- Instrument control software
developers.
- Control engineers.
- Electronics engineers.
- System engineers and project
managers who need an overview of the technologies in use.
- Pipeline developers/developers
of data reduction software.
Considering the number of speakers and different
subjects that will be covered, the level of detail of each talk may vary.
The ELT is still in an early development phase and
therefore not complete and subject to changes and updates for what concerns
technology and some design choices. Nevertheless we believe that makes sense to
have the seminar now for making the developers acquainted with the existing solutions
and the ELT plans for the coming years.
