There are many applications need high power proton accelerators of various kinds. However, each type of proton accelerator can only provide beam with certain characteristics, hence the match of accelerators and their application needs careful evaluation. In this talk, the beam parameters and performance limitations of linac, cyclotron, synchrotron, and FFAG accelerators will be studied and their relative merits for application in muon, neutron, neutrino, and ADS assessed in terms of beam energy, intensity, bunch length, repetition rate, and beam power requirements. A possible match between the applications and the accelerator of choice will be presented in a matrix form. The accelerator physics and technology issues and challenges involved will also be covered.
