   The COMPASS DCS architecture is explained in the following pages. Although the system was later modified in some parts, the bulk of this documentation remains valid: "DCS general overview", N. Karlsson, 2001.

   The description of the panels and scripts existing at the time of 2001 technical Run is given in the following pages - but please keep in mind that the current system appearance differs in many aspects of the one here presented: "DCS panels and Scripts", N. Karlsson, 2001.

   The COMPASS Framework used in 2001 technical Run and 2002 physics Run is described in detail in this document - several aspects are no longer valid, though: "COMPASS Framework documentation", H. Milcent, J. Rossi and N. Karlsson, 24/11/2000.
