1 IntroductionThis document constitutes a cost proposal for the prototype FSPC contract

amendment. The assumptions are based on the document distributed by IO.

The assumptions on the work expected to be performed on the tasks are clarified in

the following sections

3 Task Planning3.1 ATCA PCIe switch CardThe amount requested is 3 sample cards. In the following sections the foreseen tasks

are described.

Production

Manufacture (20 days)

Assembly and Test (20 days)

Packaging and delivery to IO

Software support

Linux driver (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 64-bits platform version 6. For real

time requirements, a tuning on Red Hat MRG extension will be required.)

EPICS device support (using Core System V2.1 distribution.)

versioning in SVN

Linux RPM package for automatic installation

Test software (A monitoring screen based on CSS BOY and EPICS will be

developed allowing user interaction. The interface with the alarm server and

the archive engine will also be demonstrated using CSS tools. The user will be

allowed to change EPICS standard thresholds such as noise reduction, monitor

and archive dead bands).

Software Commissioning

4

ITER FCPS Project - AmendmentCost Proposalersion v1.01

Documentation,

Final engineering and design documents

Installation and user manuals

test plan (produced for each product detailing the different scenarios with the

expected results)

Note: software support of I/O modules should not rely exclusively on the MARTe

module which is only one specific use case.

3.2 ATCA ADC moduleThe amount requested is 2 sample cards

Production

Manufacture (20 days)

Assembly and Test (20 days)

Packaging and delivery to Io

Software support

time requirements, a tuning on Red Hat MRG extension will be required.)

test plan (produced for each product detailing the different scenarios with the

expected results)

Note: software support of I/O modules should not rely exclusively on the MARTe

module which is only one specific use case.

Note: For existing products, current material could be referenced and the provided

documentation could only focus on CODAC integration and usage

3.3 ATCA shelfThe amount requested is 1 shelve (selection only)

Selection of an ATCA commercial shelf that allows interconnection in a full-

mesh topology will be selected. World wide support of this product will be

required.

Note: For existing products, current material could be referenced and the provided

documentation could only focus on CODAC integration and usage

3.4 MARTe framework integration in CODAC Core System Integration in CODAC SVN repository

deployment as a RPM package

Samples to demonstrate the interface with EPICS and CSS tools.

MARTe framework will allow the production of “processed” signals and related

EPICS PVs. It will be possible to setup EPICS thresholds on processed and physical

signals.

For instance, alarm monitors will be invoked if the alarm status or severity has

changed – for analogue value, alarm status is changed when the hysteresis condition

(EPICS field HYST) - dead band around the alarm limits, is met. Archive and value

change monitors will be invoked if EPICS field ADEL – archive dead band, and

6

ITER FCPS Project - AmendmentCost Proposalersion v1.01

EPICS field MDEL – monitoring dead band, conditions are met.

The EPICS Analogue Input record has also a smoothing filter to reduce noise on the

input signal (EPICS field SMOO). This field will also apply to a processed signal by

MARTe.

3.5 FlexRIO EPICS ASYN generic device support Purchase FlexRIO Module

Elaboration of design, IDC and test plan document for the FlexRIO EPICS

ASYN following the standardization abstract.

Implementation of FlexRIO EPICS ASYN generic device support according

an abstract model provided by CODAC.

o Implementation of the LabVIEW/FPGA design following the abstract

model.

o Test and validation using LabVIEW environment.

o Implementation and debug using EPICS and ASYN (Codac Core

System V2.1).

o Deliver to SVN.

Product quality improvement. Integration of the different bugs detected.

o Problem reproduction.

LabVIEW code analysis.

IOC configuration review

Error identification and isolation of the error

(LabVIEW/FPGA, Setup, ASYN Driver, etc)

o Solution to provide. Implementation and verification

o Documentation.

Elaboration of the final document version and samples.

Note: the FlexRIO EPICS ASYN support device that should not be dependent of any

archive or communication system.

ITER FCPS Project - AmendmentCost Proposalersion v1.01

Note: CODAC will propose a standardization of FPGA Application Register Table

and an abstract model for FPGA Asyn device support which will be provided to

implement FlexRIO driver.

3.6 Aspects requiring further discussion

Open licensing model will be established for the products allowing all

vendors to adhere and access blueprints and code according to the

EURATOM Agreement licensing.

The amount of support required after delivery of the items to CODAC needs

to be further discussed in order to allow a correct estimation of the

manpower required.

4 Work Breakdown StructureThe foreseen Work Breakdown Structure for the project, given the present

understanding of its scope is illustrated in Figure 1

5 Cost EstimateTable 1 has a summary of the total estimated costs for the foreseen amendment

of the contract. Details are given in the following sections. The cost of traveling to

Cadarache for the kick-off meeting (4 person is included). The total cost

envisaged, given the present understanding of the scope of the amendment, is of

398554 euros-

Table 1: Cost estimate for the prototype FPSC Amendment Contract

5.1 Hardware costTable 2 discriminates the hardware items to be supplied to IO. For the ATCA

shelf it is assumed a shelf with full-mesh 40 Gb backplane. The exact model will

be selected during the project. The purchase of a flexRIO module is required for

the driver development and testing. It is assumed that IO will purchase it and

deliver to the team.

Table 2: Cost of the foreseen hardware to be delivered to IO

5.2 Manpower costTable 3 indicates the estimation (in hour) of the manpower required for each

task and respective estimated cost. The details of the work estimated for each

task are discriminated in the following sections (Table 4 to Table 8). It should be

11

ITER FCPS Project - AmendmentCost Proposalersion v1.01

noted that about half of the cost is related to the estimated time dedicated to

support activities. This point needs to be clarified with IO.
