We assume that you know more or less what EPICS is. Here we want to start from scratch and get to the point where we have a working server, offering some PVs for reading (caget or pvget) and writing (caput or pvput), and we read and write on them from another terminal, either on the same machine or on another one in the same network. If you are going to use two different machines, you will have to repeat the steps for installing EPICS for both of them. 1.2 Prepare your system You need make, c++ and libreadline to compile from source. On macOS these dependencies can be installed by using e.g. homebrew. On Linux you can use apt-get install. The Packages required for EPICS on Centos 8 document lists all of the packages required to build EPICS base, the sequencer, synApps modules, and areaDetector. 1.3 Install EPICS mkdir $HOME/EPICS cd $HOME/EPICS git clone --recursive https://github.com/epics-base/epics-base.git cd epics-base make After compiling you should put the path into $HOME/.profile or into $HOME/.bashrc by adding the following to either one of those files: export EPICS_BASE=${HOME}/EPICS/epics-base export EPICS_HOST_ARCH=$(${EPICS_BASE}/startup/EpicsHostArch) export PATH=${EPICS_BASE}/bin/${EPICS_HOST_ARCH}:${PATH} 1 EPICS How-Tos EpicsHostArch is a program provided by EPICS that returns the architecture of your system. Thus the code above should be fine for every architecture. 1.4 Test EPICS Now log out and log in again, so that your new path is set correctly. Alternatively, you can execute the three lines above beginning with export directly from the terminal. Run softIoc and, if everything is ok, you should see an EPICS prompt. softIoc epics> You can exit with ctrl-c or by typing exit. Voilà. Ok, that is not very impressive, but at least you know that EPICS is installed correctly. So now let us try something more complex, which will hopefully suggest how EPICS works. In whatever directory you like, prepare a file test.db that reads like record(ai,"temperature:water") { field(DESC,"Water temperature in the fish tank") } This file defines a record instance called temperature:water, which is an analog input (ai) record. As you can imagine DESC stays for Description. Now we start softIoc again, but this time using this record database. softIoc-d test.db Now, from your EPICS prompt, you can list the available records with the dbl command and you will see something like epics> dbl temperature:water epics> Open a new terminal (we call it nr. 2) and try the command line tools caget and caput. You will see something like your prompt> caget temperature:water temperature:water0 your prompt> caget temperature:water.DESC temperature:water.DESC Water temperature in the fish tank your prompt> caput temperature:water 21 Old : temperature:water0 New : temperature:water 21 your prompt> caput temperature:water 24 Old : temperature:water 21 New : temperature:water 24 your prompt> caget temperature:water temperature:water 24 ... etc. Now open yet another terminal (nr. 3) and try camonitor as 2 Chapter 1. Installation on Linux/UNIX/DARWIN (Mac) EPICS How-Tos camonitor temperature:water First, have a look at what happens when you change the temperature:water value from terminal nr. 2 using caput. Then, try to change the value by some tiny amounts, like 15.500001, 15.500002, 15.500003. You will see that camonitor reacts but the readings do not change. If you wanted to see more digits, you could run camonitor-g8 temperature:water For further details on the Channel Access protocol, including documentation on the caput, caget, camonitor... command line tools, please refer to the Channel Access Reference Manual. In real life, however, it is unlikely that the 8 digits returned by your thermometer (in this example) are all significant. We should thus limit the traffic to changes of the order of, say, a hundredth of a degree. To do this, we add one line to the file test.db, so that it reads record(ai,"temperature:water") { field(DESC,"Water temperature in Lab 10") field(MDEL,".01") } MDEL stands for Monitor Deadband. If you now run softIoc-d test.db with the new test.db file, you will see that camonitor reacts only to changes that are larger than 0.01. This was just a simple example. Please refer to a recent Record Reference Manual for further information. 1.5 Create a demo/test ioc to test ca and pva mkdir -p $HOME/EPICS/TEST/testIoc cd $HOME/EPICS/TEST/testIoc makeBaseApp.pl -t example testIoc makeBaseApp.pl -i -t example testIoc make cd iocBoot/ioctestIoc chmod u+x st.cmd ioctestIoc> ./st.cmd #!../../bin/darwin-x86/testIoc < envPaths epicsEnvSet("IOC","ioctestIoc") epicsEnvSet("TOP","/Users/maradona/EPICS/TEST/testIoc") epicsEnvSet("EPICS_BASE","/Users/maradona/EPICS/epics-base") cd "/Users/maradona/EPICS/TEST/testIoc" ## Register all support components dbLoadDatabase "dbd/testIoc.dbd" testIoc_registerRecordDeviceDriver pdbbase ## Load record instances dbLoadTemplate "db/user.substitutions" dbLoadRecords "db/testIocVersion.db", "user=junkes" dbLoadRecords "db/dbSubExample.db", "user=junkes" #var mySubDebug 1 #traceIocInit cd "/Users/maradona/EPICS/TEST/testIoc/iocBoot/ioctestIoc" iocInit (continues on next page) 1.5.

  • Project Skeleton for Scientific Software
    Computational Photonics Group Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical University of Munich bertha: Project Skeleton for Scientific Software Michael Riesch , Tien Dat Nguyen , and Christian Jirauschek Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Technical University of Munich, Arcisstr. 21, 80333 Munich, Germany [email protected] Received: 10 December 2019 / Accepted: 04 March 2020 / Published: 23 March 2020 * Abstract — Science depends heavily on reliable and easy-to-use software packages, such as mathematical libraries or data analysis tools. Developing such packages requires a lot of effort, which is too often avoided due to the lack of funding or recognition. In order to reduce the efforts required to create sustainable software packages, we present a project skeleton that ensures the best software engineering practices from the start of a project, or serves as reference for existing projects. 1 Introduction In a recent essay in Nature [1], a familiar dilemma in science was addressed. On the one hand, science relies heavily on open-source software packages, such as libraries for mathematical operations, implementations of numerical methods, or data analysis tools. As a consequence, those software packages need to work reliably and should be easy to use. On the other hand, scientific software is notoriously underfunded and the required efforts are achieved as side projects or by the scientists working in their spare time. Indeed, a lot of effort has to be invested beyond the work on the actual implementation – which is typically a formidable challenge on its own. This becomes apparent from literature on software engineering in general (such as the influential “Pragmatic Programmer” [2]), and in scientific contexts in particular (e.g., [3–6]).

  • Mobile Cloud Based Compiler : a Novel Framework for Academia
    International Journal of Advancements in Research & Technology, Volume 2, Issue4, April‐2013 445 ISSN 2278‐7763 Mobile Cloud based Compiler : A Novel Framework For Academia Mahendra Mehra, Kailas.k.Devadkar, Dhananjay Kalbande 1Computer Engineering, Sardar Patel Institute of Technology, Mumbai, India; 2 Computer Engineering, Sardar Patel Institute of Technology, Mum- bai, India. Email: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT Cloud computing is a rising technology which enables convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources. Mobile cloud computing is the availability of cloud computing services in a mobile ecosystem. Mobile cloud computing shares with cloud computing the notion that services is provided by a cloud and accessed through mobile plat- forms. The paper aims to describe an online mobile cloud based compiler which helps to reduce the problems of portability and storage space and resource constraints by making use of the concept of mobile cloud computing. The ability to use compiler ap- plication on mobile devices allows a programmer to get easy access of the code and provides most convenient tool to compile the code and remove the errors. Moreover, a mobile cloud based compiler can be used remotely throughout any network con- nection (WI-FI/ GPRS) on any Smartphone. Thus, avoiding installation of compilers on computers and reducing the dependen- cy on computers to write and execute programs. Keywords: Mobile cloud computing; mobile web services; JASON; Compiler; Academia 1 INTRODUCTION The classroom is changing. From the time school bell rings to smartphones, and desktops. The cloud helps ensure that stu- study sessions that last well into the night, students and facul- dents, teachers, faculty, parents, and staff have on-demand ty are demanding more technology services from their access to critical information using any device from any- schools.
