GumTree Workbench
GumTree is an open source and multi-platform graphical
user interface for performing neutron scattering and X-ray
experiments. It handles the complete experiment life cycle from
instrument calibration, data acquisition, and real time data
analysis to results publication. The aim of the GumTree Project
is to create a highly Integrated Scientific Experiment
Environment (
ISEE), allowing interconnectivity and data sharing between
different distributed components such as motors, detectors, user
proposal database and data analysis server. GumTree is being
adapted to several instrument control server systems such as
TANGO,
EPICS
and
SICS, providing
an easy-to-use front-end for users and simple-to-extend model for
software developers. The design of
GumTree is aimed to be reusable and configurable for any
scientific instrument. GumTree will be adapted to six neutron
beam instruments for the OPAL reactor at
ANSTO.
GumTree Top Level Projects
GumTree Projects
GumTree is an open source software package for performing scientific experiments. It is currently developed by the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO), and is in use by a number of neutron beam instruments on the OPAL research reactor. The aim of GumTree is to provide a closed loop on data acquisition and analysis, which enables users to utilise instrument time for much more sophisticated experiments.
The GumTree project is a collaborative effort on driving the GumTree development. Currently the GumTree project hosts the GumTree Platform (runtime) project and a number of related projects.
- GumTree Platform - provides the runtime, as desktop or server based application, for status monitoring and workflow execution support
- GumTree Numeric Library - a Java based library for handling data file and numerical computing
- Kuranda Visualisation Toolkit - an OpenGL based scientific data visualisation for GumTree
- Cicada Processor Framework - a powerful framework automation framework that works in a similar fashion to Simulink
- Kakadu Data Analysis Suite - a data analysis frontend that builds on top of Cicada
- SICS Control System Support - Java adaptor to the PSI's SICS control system
-
ANSTO Neutron Beam Instrument Support - customised
modules for ANSTO's neutron beam instrumentrs
The GumTree project site is currently hosting a number of projects associate with the GumTree ISEE and Eclipse RCP techonolgy.
- GumTree Integrated Scientific Experiment Environment (ISEE) Workbench
- GumTree NeXus Instrument eXentsion (GumNIX)
-
GumTree Plug-in Library
