Description
Last two years the GTC control system has continued its design and prototyping activity. This paper presents the current state of the GTC control system architecture. The overall architecture is already designed and the main subsystems have been specified and are being designed. Design patterns have been applied to the architecture design and are also used as an effective way to document the design.
