CMLOG
for PEPII/NLCTA at SLAC

 


CMLOG is a distributed message logging system which can be used by applications to log messages to centralized log files and to display messages with an easy to use interface. CMLOG was designed and implemented by Jie Chen and the fine group of people at Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility(JLAB). CMLOG is currently being used at several laboratories including SLAC, BNL, BESSY, JLAB and JLAB Data Acquisition System (CODA) as well as several universities.
