TI - Operational Applications - a Software Framework Used for the Commissioning of the MedAustron Accelerator J2 - Proc. of IPAC2015, Richmond, VA, USA, May 3-8, 2015 C1 - Richmond, VA, USA T2 - International Particle Accelerator Conference T3 - 6 LA - english AB - MedAustron is a synchrotron-based cancer therapy and non-clinical research center located in Austria. Its accelerator is currently being commissioned prior to first medical treatment. During the tuning of the machine, many iterations of measurements involving several parameter changes are performed in order to optimize the accelerator’s performance. An operation and measurement software framework called 'Operational Application Framework' (OpApp) has been developed for this purpose. It follows a modular approach and provides basic methods like ‘write to file’ or ‘measure beam position monitor‘. By appropriately combining modules, OpApps performing automatized measurements and complex procedures can be created. A detailed description of the setup as well as examples of use are provided here.
