+Pkg-Description: framework for creating customised data acquisition software for science
+ The GDA project is an open-source framework for creating customised
+ data acquisition software for science facilities such as neutron and
+ x-ray sources. The software is Java/Eclipse-based, free and released
+ under the GPLv3.
+ .
+ It is based on the Generic Data Acquisition (GDA) software developed
+ at Diamond Light Source. The GDA was initially developed at SRS
+ Daresbury but since 2003 it has been adopted by Diamond Light Source
+ who took over as the principal developer. The team at Diamond have
+ developed the GDA for the majority of Diamond beamlines across all
+ the scientific techniques at Diamond. GDA is the evolution of that
+ project and is intended to be applicable for any beamline on any
+ synchrotron facility.
+ .
+ From the outset the GDA has been designed to be generic and flexible
+ in its architecture to enable it to be customisable for any beamline
+ and any underlying hardware control system.
