  A latest experience in digital signal processing of BPM data obtained in synchrotrons of ITEP and GSI is discussed. The data in ITEP was collected by BPM processor prototype while the SIS18 in GSI uses a renovated digital system. Due to different concept of BPM architectures on those facilities it is possible to compare algorithms oriented to certain hardware. Several algorithms of position detection are compared to each other. Performances of ‘collective’ and partly distributed algorithms are estimated. Data reduction methods and visualization solutions are considered. Finally low- and wideband data evaluation for longitudinal phase space is presented.

  GSI has selected the CERN Front End Software Architecture (FESA) to operate future beam diagnostic devices for the upcoming FAIR facility. The FESA framework is installed and operational at the GSI site, giving equipment specialists the possibility to develop FESA classes for device control and data acquisition. This contribution outlines first developments of FESA-based systems for various applications. Prototype DAQ systems based on FESA are the BPM system of the synchrotron SIS18 with data rates up to 7 GBit/s and a large scaler setup for particle counters called LASSIE. FESA classes that address gigabit Ethernet cameras are used for video imaging tasks like scintillator screen observation. Control oriented FESA classes access industrial Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) for the slow control of beam diagnostic devices. To monitor temperatures and set fan speeds of VME crates, a class communicating over the CAN bus has been developed.
