  • Abstract
    DIAMOND is a new UK national light source project to replace the SRS at Daresbury. Many alternative control system designs and implementations exist that might be used as a model for the machine and beamline controls on DIAMOND. This paper surveys the recent developments in light source control systems and attempts to identify some of the main advantages and disadvantages of each alternative. Also, an attempt is made to assess the relative resource implications of each of the major options within the context of a modern light source project
