Monitoring System of the AMS Science Operation Centre

Abstract

The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) is a high energy physics experiment installed and operating on board of the International Space Station (ISS) from May 2011 and expected to last through year 2024 and beyond. The Science Operation Centre (SOC) is in charge of the offline computing for the AMS experiment, including flight data production, Monte-Carlo simulation, data management, data backup, etc. This paper introduces the design and implementation for the new monitoring system of AMS SOC, from the monitoring data collection at the backend, to the visualisation at the frontend.
