DIP

• Data are exchanged on-line  between the LHC machine Control Room (CCC) and the LHC experiments via DIP (Data Interchange Protocol) during the LHC operation.
• DIP is maintained by IT/CO (access here the IT information)
• 'DIP status and issues' talk by M. P.  Dutour (IT/CO) (LEADE, April 2008)
• DIP browser tree ()
