Abstract
The Common Services Framework (CSF) is a software architecture developed at the National Solar Observatory for control of the Advanced Technology Solar Telescope (ATST). The framework was designed with the intent to make it independent of the ATST application and freely available to other projects. As part of the System Design phase for the Telescope Control System upgrade and Next Generation Adaptive Optics projects at the W. M. Keck Observatory a number of software frameworks and middleware were evaluated. Of those evaluated, CSF was selected as one of the primary choices for all or part of the software architecture and will be pursued further in the next design phases. This paper discusses the evaluation of CSF at Keck and some possible evolutions of the framework.
