  • The KSTAR Current Lead System(CLS) with network based real-time distributed control system is implemented using an EPICS as a middle-ware software. The current lead system transfers current from magnet power supplies to superconducting magnet system and simultaneously supply the coolant to maintain superconducting state. To control the CLS at main control room an EPICS IOC server is installed in local control area. Using this server, it is able to be controlled and monitored the system in main control room through operator interface(OPI) which uses "caget" to read status and "caput" to write command with a unique name called PV. The EPICS IOC is developed using "ether-ip" driver to communicate with PLC. Also we achieved satisfactory results in operation and stability aspects from a long period commissioning test.

  • 포항 가속기연구소(PAL)에서는 포항방사광가속기(PLS)가 가동을 시작한 1994년 이후 현재까지 사용되어 온 기존의 제어 시스템을 새로운 환경인 EPICS(Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System) 시스템으로 개발하고 있다. EPICS 시스템의 구성은 IOC(Input/Ouput Controller) 와 OPI(Operator Interface)의 2-Layer로 구성되며 이는 MIU(Machine Interfaces Unit), SCC(Subsystem Computer Control System) 그리고 HMI(Human Machine Interface)로 이어지는 기존의 3-Layer 단계 중 SCC단계를 줄여 2-Layer로 구성된다. 이들 두 계층간의 통신은 Client(OPI)/Server(IOC) 구조의 Channel Access를 통해서 이루어진다. 개발중인 EPICS 시스템은 Open Architecture 구조로 IOC와 OPI 각 부분에서 개발시에 사용된 운영체제나 Hardware 를 사용하지 않고 다른 운영체제나 Hardware를 사용하더라도 하나의 공통부분 즉, Channel Access만 있으면 이를 통해 서로 다른 Subsystem IOC의 데이터를 Access할 수 있다. 전체 EPICS 제어시스템 중 저장링 운전의 핵심이 되는 BPM(Beam Position Monitoring) 및 MPS(Magnet Power Supply) 시스템은 IOC부분에 MVME5100(Target Machine) 보드와 vxWorks(Operating System)를 이용하고 OPI부분에는 SUN Workstation(Host Machine)와 Solaris(Operating System)을 사용하여 개발하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 IOC 및 OPI의 설치 절차와 설치 방법에 대해 기술하였다.

  • RAON은 우라늄과 같은 무거운 이온을 가속시키는 한국형 중이온 가속기로서 현재 양산에 필요한 실험 시설이 구축되고 있다. 이온원을 생성하고 생성된 중이온 빔을 손실 없이 가속시키기 위해서는 빔의 경로인 입사기장치, 가속장치, 실험장치에서 요구하는 최적의 진공 설계가 이루어져야 하며, 이를 제어하기 위해 진공 기기들과의 데이터 통신 및 기기를 보호하기 위한 인터록 로직을 구성하여야 한다. RAON의 진공부 인터록 로직 및 제어 시퀀스는 Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)으로 구성되며, Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS) 환경에 통합되어 중앙 제어 시스템에서 관리됨과 동시에 Control System Studio (CSS)를 통해 모니터링 될 것이다. 이를 위해서는 CSS 및 PLC 와 데이터를 송수신할 수 있는 EPICS IOC를 구성하여야 한다. 본 문서에서는 진공 기기들의 정보를 로컬 PLC에서 수집하고, 진공 상태 및 진공 기기들의 작동을 위한 User Interface (UI) 및 EPICS IOC를 구성하는 방법에 대해 논의할 것이다. 진공부 제어 사전 테스트를 위해 프로토 타입 진공 제어 시스템을 구성하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 추후 최적화 된 RAON의 진공 제어 시스템을 구축할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

  • KAERI (Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute) has been performing the project named PEFP (proton engineering frontier project). PEFP has been performing the project of a high power proton accelerator. Control system for 20 MeV proton accelerating structure has developed. We use the EPICS(Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System) tool kit as a foundation of the control system. EPICS is adopted for control systems which have OPI(OPerator Interface) and IOqlnput Output Controller). We have performed the PEPF control system on SUN workstation host computer. In this paper, we present the vacuum monitor, RFQ, and DTL Turbo pump control system.

  • 다가 이온원 제조를 위한 ECR 이온원 제작과 더불어 이를 효과적으로 운전 제어할 수 있는 방안을 만들어야 한다. 이 운전 제어 방안은 두 가지 기능을 만족할 수 있도록 구성해야 하는데, 초기 실험실에서 ECR 이온원의 성능 검증을 하기에 유리하도록 알고리즘이나 시퀀스를 보다 용이하게 변경할 수 있도록 만들고 이후 확정된 알고리즘과 시퀀스를 이용하여 이온원의 안전을 보장하면서 최소한의 운전자만으로도 운전 가능하도록 구성해야 한다. 이를 구현하기 위해서 ECR 이온원 운전 제어와 관계된 모든 부대 장치들을 EPICS (Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System)로 운전하고 제어할 수 있도록 통합하면서 알고리즘의 복잡함으로 인해 발생할 수 있는 불확실성을 줄이기 위해 부대 장치를 구성하는 개별 장치 단위로 알고리즘을 만들어 EPICS database로 구현하고 운전 및 장치 보호를 위해 필요한 시퀀스는 EPICS sequencer를 이용하여 구현하였다. 현재까지 ECR 플라즈마 생성, 빔인출 그리고 입자 진단을 위해 사용된 전원 장치들을 운전 제어하기 위해 구현된 내용을 소개하고 이를 바탕으로 개별 장치에 확대하여 적용할 수 있는 방안에 대하여 연구하였다.

  • The installation and performance test of the ISOL (Isotope Separation On Line) system for the generation and separation of Rare Isotopes (RI) beams is in progress at the Rare Isotope Science Project (RISP), Institute for Basic Science (IBS). The various RI beams generated by the ISOL target/ion source go through the beam lines and separators, and only the RI beam desired by the user is selected and transmitted to the superconducting linear accelerator at the downstream of the ISOL. In the ISOL system, two separators are installed to separate a specific RI beam, and control is performed by the Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS). In this study, an EPICS IOC (Input-Output Control) was developed to measure the magnetic field of a dipole magnet for mass separation of a multivalent (n+) RI beam in the A/Q separator, which is one of the ISOL RI beam separators. The operational stability of the A/Q separator was tested through a magnetic field measurement using a Hall probe.

  • A vacuum chamber temperature control system of Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL) storage ring is a subsystem upgraded PAL control system, which is based upon Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS) [1]. There are two control components, data acquisition system (SA120 data logger), development control system IOC (Input/Output Controller) at the storage ring of PAL. There are 240 vacuum chamber at the storage ring. It was a very important problem to solve how to monitor such a large number of vacuum chamber temperature distributed around the ring. The IOC connect MODBUS/JBUS field network to asynchronous serial ports for communication with serial device. It can simultaneously control up to 4 data acquisition systems. Upon receiving a command from a IOC running under Windows2k through the network, the IOC communicate through the slave serial interface ports to SA120. We added some software components on the top of EPICS toolkit. The design of the vacuum control system is discussed. This paper describes the development vacuum chamber temperature control system and how the design of this system.

  • Ontological knowledge modelling of epic texts, though being an established research arena backed by concrete multilingual and multicultural works, still suffers from two key shortcomings. Firstly, all epic ontological models developed till date have been designed following ad-hoc methodologies, most often combining existing general purpose ontology development methodologies. Secondly, none of the ad-hoc methodologies consider the potential reuse of existing epic ontological models for enrichment, if available. This paper presents, as a unified solution to the above shortcomings, the design and development of GOMME - the first dedicated methodology for iterative ontological modelling of epics, potentially extensible to works in different research arenas of digital humanities in general. GOMME is grounded in transdisciplinary foundations of canonical norms for epics, knowledge modelling best practices, application satisfiability norms, and cognitive generative questions. It is also the first methodology (in epic modelling but also in general) to be flexible enough to integrate, in practice, the options of knowledge modelling via reuse or from scratch. The feasibility of GOMME is validated via a first brief implementation of ontological modelling of the Indian epic Mahabharata by reusing an existing ontology. The preliminary results are promising, with the GOMME-produced model being both ontologically thorough and competent performance-wise.

  • This study tries to evaluate the similarities and differences between Paradise Lost and the Journey to the West through the characteristics of Satan and Monkey King. In Paradise Lost, the spirit of Satan revolts God is just like the spirit of Bourgeois revolts the Feudal Aristocracy; however, Monkey King's figure in the Journey to the West is a character with rebellious spirits. In the western world, they often advocate punishments afterward, while the eastern world notes social orders and rules. Although eastern epics have distinct differences toward western epics due to the different cultural and historical backgrounds, the results that the winners at the end always get supreme powers are the same.
