Presented at ICALEPCS' 95 encountered during the project development are discussed in some detail.the alarm reduction mechanism, as well as error•handling and logging.Problems equipment, to existing alarm and data logging systems and to operator supervision consoles, This paper describes the data acquisition and distribution mechanisms, the interfaces to Software Engineering Standards and its life-cycle approach.with these groups.The project adheres fully to the European Space Agency (ESA) PSS-O5 criteria for selection, implementation and maintenance have been elaborated in common and experimental physics divisions, detailed software and user requirements, as well as As the concept of such a data server is also of interest to other groups in CERN accelerator expected that the TDS will substantially increase system performance and ease operation.distribution, cooling water, air-conditioning, vacuum, safety and similar systems.It is which contains all states of the technical infrastructure: 100'000 points describing electrical Room (TCR), and by equipment groups.The TDS is basically a real-time information system the technical infrastructure of CERN by its dedicated control room, the Technical Control We have defined a Technical Data Server (TDS) to be used for the supervision and control of
