  The talk will discuss the approaches of different accelerators, such as FAIR, ESS, MedAustron, XFEL, etc. An overview of different approaches will be given with an emphasis of the recent spectrum of various realizations of accelerator control systems. The talk will not be limited to open source and off-the-shelf software frameworks only but will touch all trends in modern accelerators, including recent trends in hardware. The role of the control system will be highlighted as a common integration framework for various applications, with an emphasis on its increased complexity and scale, and the need for improved reliability and an appropriate service. How control systems can help support the requirements-shaping process early in the project will also be discussed.
