Introduction and Status of Fermilab's ACORN Project

Modernizing the Fermilab accelerator control system is essential to future operations of the laboratory's accelerator complex. The existing control system has evolved over four decades and uses hardware that is no longer available and software that uses obsolete frameworks. The Accelerator Controls Operations Research Network (ACORN) Project will modernize the control system and replace end-of-life power supplies to enable future accelerator complex operations with megawatt particle beams. An overview of the ACORN Project and a summary of recent research and development activities will be presented.

The Fermilab Accelerator Division Electronic Logbook (ADEL) at 10 Years

The current Fermilab Accelerator Division (AD) Electronic Logbook (ADEL) wasfirst released in 2013. It’s creation a decade ago represented a markedimprovement over the previous electronic logbook (eLog) and brought about the first consolidated Fermilab AD eLog built upon a relational database. Over the past ten years, ADEL has performed admirably, logging nearly one million user entered entries, comments and files, undergoing a revision and adding many additional features. However, as the work of Fermilab has changed, so has theuse of ADEL, some of which it had not been designed for.
