    MC03: Control System Sustainment and Management
    Contributed Oral Presentation

    As the works at FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research) progress deeper into the installation and near the commissioning phase, FAIR control system gets closer to its final shape. With many software parts for the accelerator controls completed, valuable experience has been gained from the encountered managerial challenges.
    In this paper, we present the best practices and lessons...

    MC03: Control System Sustainment and Management
    Contributed Oral Presentation

    To enhance operational stability and user satisfaction, the ICT groups at MAX IV Laboratory (formerly KITS) have implemented a structured support model inspired by the European XFEL's Data Department Operations Centre (DOC). The KITOS (KITS Operation Support) initiative ensures expert coverage during working hours and a best-effort support model during evenings and weekends, staffed by a...

  3. 287. Achieving sustainment: from daily operations to long-term strategic planning (WECR003)
    Martin Pieck (Los Alamos National Laboratory)
    24/09/2025, 14:45
    MC03: Control System Sustainment and Management
    Contributed Oral Presentation

    Particle accelerator facilities support a wide array of applications and vary greatly in type, purpose, size, construction cost, and both the sources and levels of operational funding. While the lifespan of each accelerator is shaped by a range of technical and organizational factors, many continue to operate well beyond their originally projected lifetimes. Sustaining long-term operations...
