Abstract

At the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), a flexible framework for magnetic measurements (FFMM) has been proposed for managing different batch magnetic tests. Such a system is aimed at creating a test platform, integrating new hardware and software, for satisfying a wide range of measurement requirements, variable and evolving during the time. In this paper, first the conceptual project of the framework and its multi-layer architecture are presented. Then, the preliminary implementation of the lowest layers is described.
