Management of a Large, Distributed Control System Development Project (*)

D.P. Gurd (LANL)

The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS), currently under construction in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, combines a pulsed 1GeV H- superconducting linac with a compressor ring to deliver 2MW of beam power to a liquid mercury target for neutron production. Accelerator components, target and instruments are being developed collaboratively by Lawrence Berkeley, Los Alamos, Thomas Jefferson, Brookhaven, Oak Ridge and Argonne National Laboratories. Similarly, the EPICS-based control system is being developed by a team distributed among all of the participating laboratories. This paper discusses the management model and strategies being used to address the unusual issues of organization, communication, standardization, integration and hand-off inherent in this widely-distributed project.
