CONTROL AND DATA FLOW SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中利用 资源由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目和 调查员(PI)可能从NIH的另一个来源获得了主要资金， 并因此可以在其他清晰的条目中表示。列出的机构是 该中心不一定是调查人员的机构。 控制台开发系统。在本报告所述期间，控制台控制开发系统和与之一起开发的控制脚本不断发展。控制台开发系统的主要变化包括： 1)负责传播用户事件(例如，鼠标和键盘输入)的系统已从根本上进行了更改，以提高脚本图形用户界面的响应性，并简化用于处理这些事件的脚本方法。 2)开发了一个实时符号控制台脚本调试器。调试器允许与控制台脚本进行细粒度实时交互，以进行调试和脚本开发。 3)开发了一系列新的控制台操作符，允许控制台脚本生成并解析来自传统窗口对话框的输入。这允许脚本呈现在外观和行为方面与普通Microsoft Windows应用程序一致的图形用户界面元素。 4)开发了一种新的用于图像采集和分析的控制台服务器。该服务器可用于各种校准控制台脚本以及自动晶体对准。 5)开发了许多新的控制台脚本，包括光束转向校准、MD2微衍射仪和机器人样品加载器控制脚本。 MD2微衍射仪对照。将美泰MD2微衍射仪集成到NE-CAT的束线控制系统中。这项工作包括对ADSC探测器控制系统的重大修订和新的控制台脚本。 数据流系统。第二个惠普EVA 5000网络连接存储系统已经采购并投入使用。该系统将我们的聚合磁盘存储扩展了25TB，并为NE-CAT的数据流系统提供了硬件和服务冗余。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. Console Development System. The console controls development system and controls scripting developed with it has undergone continuous development during this reporting period. Major changes to the Console development system include: 1) The system responsible for propagating user events (e.g. mouse and keyboard input) has be radically altered to improve responsiveness of script GUI's and simplify the script methods used to deal with them. 2) Development of a real-time symbolic Console script debugger. The debugger allows fine-grained real-time interaction with Console scripts for debugging and script development. 3) A series of new Console operators have been developed that allow Console scripts to generate and parse input from conventional windows dialog boxes. This allows scripts to present GUI elements that are consistent with vanilla Microsoft Windows applications in terms of appearance and behavior. 4) Development of a new Console server for image acquisition and analysis. This server is use by a variety of calibration console scripts as well as automated crystal alignment. 5) Many new Console scripts have been developed, including beam steering calibration, MD2 microdiffractometer and robotic sample-loader control scripts. MD2 Microdiffractometer Controls. The Mattel MD2 microdiffractomter was integrated into NE-CAT's beam line control system. This effort involved major revision of the ADSC detector control system and new Console scripting. Data Flow System. A second Hewlett Packard EVA 5000 network-attached storage system has been acquired and commissioned. This system extends our aggregate disc storage by 25 terabytes and provides hardware and service redundancy for NE-CAT's data flow system.
