  As VEPP-5 moves to commissioning, its control system—CX—becomes more mature. CX is a distributed, networked control system based on a 3-layer "standard model." It has been used for VEPP-5 control since 2000; most hardware is CAMAC and CAN-bus. Currently most control programs have switched to modular plugin-based architecture, which significantly eases development of applications and enhances the whole control system integration. Large-data-size control hardware (such as digital oscilloscopes and CCD-cameras) is fully supported by CX now. E-logbook is currently being deployed, both as a web application and with direct support in control programs. GIS technology is being introduced to the control system, which opens many interesting possibilities.  
 
WPPA15 Use of a Three-Layer Control System for Non-Destructive Beam Probe Monitor controls, electron, linac, vacuum 345

  The non-destructive beam probe is based on the scanning of a thin electron beam within the energy range 20-100 kV in the electromagnetic field of an intensive relativistic bunch. A CCD-camera is used to view the beam "image." Initially the facility was controlled by a standalone application. This was dictated mainly by specifics of a CCD-camera and digital oscilloscopes, which are required for tuning. Now, when CCD-camera and digital oscilloscopes are fully supported by a CX networked control system (based on the 3-layer model), the standalone application was replaced by a CX-based set of programs. This enables remote operation, with several applications running in parallel. Additionally, this architecture allows use of scripting facilities to automate various routine tasks, which previously had to be done by hand.  
 
RPPB01 The CERN Control Centre: Setting Standards for the 21st Century controls, cryogenics, civil-engineering, ion 603

  After a 15-month construction period, the CERN Control Centre (CCC) began operating on February 1st, 2006. The CCC now controls all of CERN's accelerators, technical infrastructure, and cryogenics plants. In addition, most LHC experiments as well as other scientific laboratories throughout the world, are adopting some of its design options (furniture, layout, colours, …) for their own control rooms. This paper presents the main ideas behind the ergonomic choices.
