Reliability improvement of the DCS Board used in the ALICE Experiment
نویسندگان
چکیده
The DCS Board is an Embedded System that is part of the ALICE Detector Control System and employed as interface layer between detector hardware and control environment. One hardware design is used in multiple applications and adapted based on a combination of a dedicated processor and configurable hardware to special detector needs. 1040 pieces of the DCS Board are produced for 9 detectors and used in 18 variants. This report summarizes our work to improve the reliability of the DCS board. A full description may be found in the article presented at FPL08[2].

The present research tries to show how race, class, and gender and intersectionality in general, have their decisive impact on the black- American women; and how Alice Walker as a womanist, in her selected short stories, tries to show that black women in the U.S. suffer two-fold acts of oppression and discrimination, i.e. male violence affects all women in social life, irrespective of age or so...
متن کاملDetector Control System for the ALICE Time Projection Chamber
The Alice experiment is operated by a hierarchical structure of control layers. The various sub-detectors of the ALICE experiment are controlled by the Detector Control System (DCS). The topmost layer is the Experimental Control System (ECS) and controls the DCS, Data Acquisition (DAQ) and Trigger system (Figure 1). During normal operation the shift crew controls the detector at the ECS level. ...
