The NSLS-II high level physics applications are an effort from both controls and accelerator physics group. They are developed with the client-server approach, where the services are mainly provided by controls group in terms of web service or libraries.

The EPICS (Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System) IOC (Input Output Controller) Core database represents a process on signal level, presenting a flat view of possibly complex devices. This signal level interface is an easily agreed upon common denominator, allowing drivers, signal records, and processes on these signals to be standardized across EPICS installations. However, it is also necessary to represent a device in its different aspects. Currently this requires a-priori knowledge of all individual channels that are included in a device by each client. This paper discusses device orientation based on the new EPICS Version 4 database and middle layer services along with the ecosystem to manage these views.
