ITER hosted the Spring EPICS Collaboration Meeting in June 2019. The meeting took place at the ITER site in Cadarache, 45 km north-east of Aix-en-Provence, France.
Thanks a lot for attending the meeting.
Here's the group photo we took on Wednesday. (Link to hi-res version above.)
EPICS (Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System) is a set of Open Source software tools, libraries and applications developed collaboratively and used worldwide to create distributed soft real-time control systems for scientific instruments such as a particle accelerators, telescopes, experiment beam lines and other large scientific experiments.
The EPICS collaboration meetings provide a chance for developers and managers from the various sites to come together and discuss their work and progress, and make plans for the future. They give a chance to see what is being done at other laboratories, and to review the specifications for new tools or enhancements to existing ones in order to maximize their usefulness to the whole community and avoid duplication of effort.
