Description

We have developed the standard software framework unified data acquisition and device control at the beginning of the Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility (MLF) in the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC). The software framework called 'IROHA' is introduced and used in several instruments at MLF from 2008. In use of the software framework for five years, several improvement points as follows were suggested to IROHA. They are 1) separation of device control and instrument management (i.e., the roles of device control are operation, monitor and logging of devices, the roles of instrument management are logging of measurement, authorization and certification), 2) interface of experimental database for measurement information and 3) platform-independent user interface. In this article, we describe the details of the new software framework 'IROHA2'. (author)
