Renovating and Upgrading the Web2cToolkit Suite: A Status Report

Abstract

Web2cToolkit is a collection of Web services. It enables scientists, operators or service technicians to supervise and operate accelerators and beam lines through the World Wide Web. In addition, it provides users with a platform for communication and the logging of data and actions. Recently a novel service, especially designed for mobile devices, has been added. Besides the standard mouse-based interaction it provides a touch- and voice-based user interface. Web2cToolkit is currently undergoing an extensive renovation and upgrading process. Real WYSIWYG-editors are now available to generate and configure synoptic and history displays, and an interface based on 3D-motion and gesture recognition has been implemented. Also the multi-language support and the security of the communication between Web client and server have been improved substantially. The paper reports the complete status of this work and outlines upcoming development
