The Relational Database Aspects of Argonne's ATLAS Control System
The Relational Database Aspects of Argonnes ATLAS Control System Argonnes
ATLAS (Argonne Tandem Linac Accelerator System) control system comprises two
separate database concepts. The first is the distributed real-time database
structure provided by the commercial product Vsystem [1]. The second is a more
static relational database archiving system designed by ATLAS personnel using
Oracle Rdb [2] and Paradox [3] software. The configuration of the ATLAS
facility has presented a unique opportunity to construct a control system
relational database that is capable of storing and retrieving complete archived
tune-up configurations for the entire accelerator. This capability has been a
major factor in allowing the facility to adhere to a rigorous operating
schedule. Most recently, a Web-based operator interface to the control systems
Oracle Rdb database has been installed. This paper explains the history of the
ATLAS database systems, how they interact with each other, the design of the
new Web-based operator interface, and future plans.Comment: ICALEPCS 2001 Conference, PSN WEAP066, 3 pages, 3 figure

Institutional plan. Fiscal year, 1997--2002
The Institutional Plan is the culmination of Argonne`s annual planning cycle. The document outlines what Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) regards as the optimal development of programs and resources in the context of national research and development needs, the missions of the Department of Energy and Argonne National Laboratory, and pertinent resource constraints. It is the product of ANL`s internal planning process and extensive discussions with DOE managers. Strategic planning is important for all of Argonne`s programs, and coordination of planning for the entire institution is crucial. This Institutional Plan will increasingly reflect the planning initiatives that have recently been implemented
