Systematic Testing of Radiotherapy Accelerators
The nature of radiotherapy accelerators is briefly explained. It is argued that these complex safety-critical systems need a systematic basis for testing their software. The paper describes a novel application of protocol specification and testing methods to radiotherapy accelerators. It is explained that the accelerator control system is specified using LOTOS (Language Of Temporal Ordering Spe...
متن کاملSpectral characterization of COTS RGB cameras using a linear variable edge filter
The spectral response function of a camera maps the relative sensitivity of the camera imaging system as a function of the wavelength of the light. The spectral response function of the colour channels of a commercial-off-theshelf (COTS) Red/Green/Blue (RGB) camera is often unknown and not typically provided by the manufacturer of the camera. Knowledge of this response can be useful for a wide ...
متن کاملFormally-Based Testing of Radiotherapy Accelerators
The paper presents the aims and research plan of the CONFORMED project (Conformance Of Radiological/Medical Devices). This three-year project will develop tools and techniques for modelling and testing radiotherapy equipment. Formal specifications in LOTOS (Language Of Temporal Ordering Specification) will be used to model accelerators formally and to derive tests rigorously based on these spec...
متن کاملTravelling Wave Linear Accelerators
Communicated b y y. D. Cockcroft; MS. ABSTRACT. Acceleration of electrons by means of an electroma,onetiic wave travelling down a circular corrugated tube is considered. The relevint properties of corrugated tubes are derived and the factors influencing electron enxgies. Some numerical results are also quoted for a wavelength of 10 cm. The problems of high energy accelerators arc &scussed brief...
متن کاملProtocol Techniques for Testing Radiotherapy Accelerators
The nature of radiotherapy accelerators is briefly explained. It is argued that these complex safety-critical systems need a systematic basis for testing their software. The paper describes a novel application of protocol specification and testing methods to radiotherapy accelerators. An outline specification is given in LOTOS (Language Of Temporal Ordering Specification) of the accelerator con...
