Software solutions manage the definition, operation, maintenance and configuration control of the National Ignition Facility
چکیده انگلیسی

The National Ignition Facility (NIF) is the world's largest laser composed of millions of individual parts brought together to form one massive assembly. Maintaining control of the physical definition, status and configuration of this structure is a monumental undertaking yet critical to the validity of experimental data and the safe operation of the facility. A major programmatic challenge is to deploy software solutions to effectively manage the definition, build, operation, and maintenance, and configuration control of all components of NIF. The strategy for meeting this challenge involves deploying and integrating an enterprise application suite of solutions consisting of both Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) products and custom developed software.This paper describes how this strategy has been implemented along with a discussion on the successes realized and the ongoing challenges associated with this approach.


► NIF is a complex experimental facility composed of ∼4 million components.
► We describe business tools to define, build, operate, and maintain all components.
► CAD tools generate virtual models and assemblies under configuration control.
► Items requiring preventive, reactive, and/or calibration maintenance are tracked.
► Radiological or hazardous materials undergo additional controls.
