DAQ-Middleware: Progress and status

Abstract

We report on the progress and status of DAQ-Middleware, a software framework for a distributed data acquisition system. We made improvements in DAQ-Middleware and released package (version 1.0.0) in August 2010. We describe here its improvements in performance and the component development method we used. We also report on the current status of DAQ-Middleware for use at the Material and Life Science Experimental Facility (MLF) of the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC).
