Control System and Information Technology Group

This group designed and constructed the control systems for an 8GeV C-band linear accelerator and insertion device beam lines of SACLA, XFEL facility in Harima. The group continuously researches modern technologies of information and electronics in order to improve the control performance of the system.

Research Subjects

• Distributed computing architecture, virtual computing, high availability computing
• Database management system, man-machin interface software
• Wide-band high-speed network, security, Web technology
• High-speed high-precision analogue and digital devices
• Embedded system, device control bus(VME, C.PCI, PCI)
