Description

Constellation is a framework used for lab setups or small-scale experiments in HEP. One of its most important goals is that the framework should be easy to use for both scientists implementing new devices as well as experiment operators.

Constellation features a Qt-based User Interfaces to control and monitor all devices in the experimental setup. The focus of this GSoC project is to add new user interfaces to Constellation and extend the current ones.
