摘要

IRMIS: The care and feeding of a generalized relatively relational database for accelerator components with a connection to the real time EPICS Input output controllers. This paper describes a relational database approach to documenting and maintaining; the feeding. It describes the automated process used to generate accelerator or synchrotron component data for the relational tables and the role of devices and components. The data this obtained turn may be used or presented in a variety of ways to the end use in order to either optimize the maintenance or to provide machine metadata for experimental performance purposes.
