Description
BLISS (BeamLine Instrumentation Support Software) is the new ESRF experiment control system that will be used to run the beamlines after the ESRF Extremely Brilliant Source upgrade (ESRF-EBS).BLISS provides a holistic approach to synchrotron experiments control. The scope of the project goes from hardware control up to the end-user interface. It is built as a modular pile of frameworks, that are orchestrated from one single command-line interface for users to be able to run their own custom scripts.
The BLISS programming language is Python and can therefore be easily embedded into any Python application, paving the way for advanced data management and online data analysis.
