Research on remote data access and visualization for long pulse experiment based on web technologies

Abstract

Model Drive System plus (MDSplus) is an efficient and convenient data storage and management software designed by MIT specifically for pulse experiments. After years of development, MDSplus has become a data management system that integrates data acquisition, storage and processing of complex scientific data. However, with the development of the experimental pulse, long pulse experiment has now become the main mode of pulse-type experiment. Compared with the short pulse experiment, the data acquisition under the long pulse experiment speed is faster, the experiment time is longer, and the amount of data is larger. In view of the fact that most of the existing visualization systems are based on client/server (C/S) architecture, which can only display local visualization. Therefore, In order to enrich the way for experimenters to obtain data, this paper designs a visual platform based on browser/server (B/S) that using the WAMP (Windows+apache+MySQL+php) architecture to build the server. The bootstrap framework is used to build the front-end. Before the visualization data transmission, the original data is processed by segmentation technology to reduce server load and improve transmission utilization so that experimenters can query and obtain the required data remotely through the platform.
