LongOps is a 4 year programme of R&D that brings together three nuclear operations use cases:decommissioning in the UK, decommissioning of the Fukushima Dai-ichi reactors in Japan and thedesign of the first remotely operated fusion reactors. LongOps is a unique internationalcollaboration funded equally by UKRI, the NDA and TEPCO (Japan).RACE will lead LongOps delivery working closely with the NDA Group (led by Sellafield Ltd), TEPCO,industry and academia.The three nuclear end users have a need to develop solutions to conduct work over many decadesinside large, shielded spaces which contain hazardous material using remotely controlled ‘longreach’ slender robotics. Hence: LONG Term OPerationS - LONG Reach Manipulators.In recent years robotics hardware and software has progressed to the point where remoteoperations are increasingly feasible and cost effective. The widespread uptake of robotics isdependent on a managed transition from working ‘hands-on’ to ‘person-in-the-loop’. This processis dependent on the availability of reliable equipment, suitably qualified and experiencedoperators, organisational infrastructure and leadership strategy. A number of these key themes will be further explored and developed with the Robotics and AI Collaboration (RAICo), which includes NDA, Sellafield, UKAEA's RACE, University of Manchester and the National Nuclear Laboratory.The common thread that unites the LongOps use cases is an aspiration to use the Next Generation ofDigital Twin to develop strategy, decrease risk, deliver training and manage long term remoteoperations for a range of tasks in a range of nuclear environments. The LongOps Digital Twin willbe a collection of integrated software tools that enable interaction with either the real world or asimulation of the real world that is designed to assist remote operations.

LongOps是一个为期4年的研发计划，汇集了三个核操作用例：英国的退役，日本福岛第一核反应堆的退役以及第一个远程操作聚变反应堆的设计。LongOps是一个独特的国际合作项目，由UKRI、NDA和TEPCO（日本）共同资助。RACE将与NDA集团（由塞拉菲尔德有限公司领导）、TEPCO、工业界和学术界密切合作，领导LongOps的交付。这三个核最终用户需要开发解决方案，以便使用远程控制的“隆格雷赫”细长机器人在包含危险材料的大型屏蔽空间内进行数十年的工作。因此：长期操作-长距离机械手。近年来，机器人硬件和软件已经发展到远程操作越来越可行和具有成本效益的地步。机器人技术的广泛应用依赖于从"动手“到”人在回路“的管理过渡。这一过程取决于可靠设备的可用性、适当资格和经验的操作人员、组织基础设施和领导战略。其中一些关键主题将与机器人和人工智能合作（RAICO）进一步探索和开发，其中包括NDA，塞拉菲尔德，UKAEA的RACE，曼彻斯特大学和国家核实验室。联合LongOps用例的共同点是希望使用下一代数字孪生来制定战略，降低风险，为各种核环境中的一系列任务提供培训和管理长期远程操作。LongOps Digital Twin将是一个集成软件工具的集合，能够与真实的世界或设计用于辅助远程操作的真实的世界的模拟进行交互。
