    The Data Processing Unit (DPU) is the scientific core of the EUCLID NISP instrument where data
    processing is, for the first time on this type of instrument, performed in flight. The SQA process
    for its ASW (Application Software) is described here: the standards, the quality targets, and the
    tools used during the software lifecycle. A possible evolution of this framework using...

    In INAF-OATo we are consolidating our experience in design and development of control SW for
    different scientific instrumentation.
    We are mainly focused on space missions, among them, Euclid in its final rush before launch,
    Athena and Ariel; but we are also involved in a stratospheric baloon-based experiment.
    In order to capitalize previous experiences and to optimize the effort facing so...

    The PRISMA network is composed of many camera devices distributed in different parts of Italy
    detecting fireballs everyday. Each camera produces images that must be synchronized in a server
    and calibrated daily and monthly. In case of multiple detections (event), another process must be
    run in order to perform other kinds of analysis. The entire network must be monitored in order to
    detect...

    PLICO (Python Laboratory Instrumentation COntrol) is a framework for developing instrument
    control applications, such as the devices usually available in a scientific laboratory. It is entirely

    written in Python and based on a client-server model, typically using zeromq as message dis-
    patcher.

    The creation of the framework was a response to the need to use the instrumentation...

    SHARK-NIR, the new infrared, coronography-driven instrument for LBT, has been installed at its
    bent gregorian left focus and is facing the commissioning phase.
    We present the (ongoing) commissioning activities of SHINS, the SHARK-NIR INstrument control
    Software.
    The development of the control software is taking advantage from these hands-on sessions to reach
    a stable, advanced phase.
    We...

    MAVIS (MCAO Assisted Visible Imager and Spectrograph) is a new instrument being built for the ESO’s Very Large Telescope.

    MAVIS is currently approaching the Preliminary Design Review (end of Mar 2023) and it is composed of a multi conjugate adaptive optics module and two scientific channels, both operating in the visible range.

    MORFEO (Multi conjugate adaptive Optics Relay For ELT...

    The ELT Instrument Framework Software (IWS), although in its pre-release phase, has reached
    a significant maturity and is already being used to implement the control software of new VLT
    instruments (such as FORS1 and CUBES). In this talk I will present our experiences in developing
    the so-called “special devices” (i.e. devices lacking a standard, commonly adopted implementation)
    for the...

    After an introduction to Beckhoff PLCs and their development environment, I will describe low-
    level software programming within the ELT framework. I will illustrate how standard and special

    ESO devices are configured and conclude by briefly describing Siemens PLCs and their character-
    istics.
