  abstract     = {Particle accelerators need a timing mechanism to properly accelerate the beam from its source to its destination. The synchronization among accelerator devices is important, which is accomplished by a distribution of timing signals. Devices which require their times synchronized to the acceleration cycle are connected to timelines. Timing signals are sent out along the timelines in the form of digital codes. Correspondingly, devices in the complex are equipped with timeline decoders, which allow devices to extract timing signals appropriately. In this work, a new simulation architecture is introduced which can generate user-specific timing events for software testing in the control systems.},
