  The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) project was completed without on-site superconducting RF (SRF) facilities. Installation of the infrastructure necessary to maintain and repair the superconducting Linac and to support power upgrade research and development (R&D) is well underway. Installation of a Class10/100/10,000 cleanroom and outfitting of the test cave with RF, vacuum, controls, personnel protection and cryogenics systems is now complete. These systems were recently operated satisfactorily to test a cryomodule that had been removed from the accelerator and repaired in the cleanroom. A horizontal cryostat has been fabricated and will be soon commissioned. Equipment for cryomodule assembly and disassembly has been installed and used for cryomodule disassembly. Cavity processing equipment, specifically an ultra-pure water system, high pressure rinse system, and vertical test area is being designed and installed. This effort is providing both high-power test capability as well as long-term maintenance capabilities. This paper presents the current status and the future plans for the SNS SRF test facility.

  Having been running the Taiwan Light Source (TLS) for fourteen years since its opening in 1993, National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center (NSRRC), Taiwan, has been approved to build a photon source (TPS) last year. TPS is preliminarily designed with 3.0 GeV in energy, 518.4m in circumference and 24 Double-Bend Achromat (DBA). The utility system, including the electrical power, cooling water and air conditioning system of the TPS were designed to meet requirements of high reliability and stability. Because the power consumption of the TPS is estimated about three times that of TLS, energy saving is another consideration. This paper therefore discusses utility design concepts and presents partial design results, including capacity requirements, equipment and piping layouts.

  The document presents a short overview of the strategy defined to integrate the 3D CAD system CATIA/Smarteam into CERN’s corporate Engineering and Equipment Data Management System (EDMS). EDMS is used to manage the information about the Laboratory’s installations and technical infrastructure. A brief description of the existing EDMS architecture is given, describing the project life cycle management features available. The integration of CATIA/Smarteam into this backbone will offer the Organization an EDMS which can handle all technical information about a facility from its inception to its dismantling seamlessly. An overview of the Design Office requirements on the new CAD system is also presented.

  The CERN Engineering and Equipment Data Management System (EDMS) is one of the largest and most complex data management systems of its kind. For the last 10 years, it has received huge quantities of data generated in the different LHC project phases. Capturing all this information would not have been possible without a robust, failsafe, yet flexible and user-friendly data import engine. For this purpose the Micado toolkit was developed at CERN using XML standards, providing multi-level data verifications, an advanced queuing mechanism and batch processing of large amounts of import requests. Whereas Micado originally was developed to facilitate the capturing of LHC manufacturing data, its modular architecture has allowed a cost-effective extension to also cater for the LHC installation and hardware commissioning data import processes. Recently Micado has broadened its scope even further, including also imports of safety inspections, and at the same time the next generation of the tool providing Web Services is already being developed.

  Previously, the Taiwan Light Source (TLS) at NSRRC has proven the good beam line quality depend on the utility system stability. Subsequently, several studies including the temperature control of cooling water and air conditioner was in progress for improving the system stability. Due to the importance of energy saving issue, the heavy power consumption of utility system are also discussed and intended to reduce extensively. The paper addresses some experience between optimal control and energy saving about operation of utility system in TLS. This provides a strategy between stability control and power reduction, including the flow balance, inverter usage, facility operation, control philosophy and so on.
