Description

In this lecture the challenges for control systems and data acquisition at large scientific facilities are introduced, using the European XFEL, and the Karabo Control System, as an example. We will cover experiment operation through asynchronous Python control software, and how large data volumes in the tens of gigabytes per second regime can be processed online and persisted.
