A modular environment for beam commissioning and operation is under development, which is based on the client/server model. The service oriented architecture consists of a server for each supported service. At NSLS-II, a so-called "virtual accelerator" has been developed, which wraps simulator engines such as Tracy and Elegant onto an EPICS system. However, with the current solution, access to data is not flexible. We are designing a new online simulator server using structured data to provide a flexible method for accessing the simulation data. This paper describes recent results of the simulator server development.

A fundamental infrastructure of software framework for beam commissioning for NSLS-II storage ring is in development. It adopts client/server model, and consists of various servers for data communication and management. Based on this structure, some physics applications are developed to satisfy the requirements of day-1 beam commissioning. This paper describes our status of infrastructure development and its applications.
