Falling funds force all accelerator centers to look for new sources of
financing and for the most efficient way of implementing new projects.
This very often leads to collaborations between institutes scattered
around the globe, a problem well known to big high energy physics
experiments. The collaborations working on big detectors e.g. for LHC
started thinking about detector acquisition and control systems which can
be remotely used from their respective home institutes with minimal
support on the spot.
This idea was taken up by A. Wagner from DESY for the TESLA machine, who
proposed the Global Accelerator Network (GAN) enabling users from
around the world to run an accelerator remotely.
