NIWeek 2012 Big Physics and Science Summit
Presented by Alexander Zhukov, Oak Ridge National Laboratory
Abstract:
Experimental Physics and Industrial Controls Systems (EPICS) is a de facto standard for particle accelerator controls systems. There are several implementations of interfaces between EPICS and LabVIEW. Explore how researchers at the Spallation Neutron Source developed a cross-platform library that enables LabVIEW to talk to EPICS, and can be run anywhere LabVIEW runs. The library demonstrates effective multithreaded use of raw network connectivity VIs.
