Motivation
Motivation:We want to develop tools which meet XFEL requirements.
We present these tools now because we want to get a feedback from the operators.

AlarmGUI
Demands on the new Alarm & Info system:Flash: data from ~ 400 servers, ~ 300000 properties → needs a clearly arranged presentation
Fast display of current error messages: less than 1 second from the occurrence of the error to the notification in the Alarm & Info display
Display of histories
→ Solution: new Alarm & Info system with Java GUI,
Java Message Service for data transfer

What we need in Future:Improvement of ddd:
Editor: simple panel creation, modern look&feel
Improved components (plots with math functions, ...)
New components (TabbedPane, ...) and functions (drag&drop, ...)
Platform independency
More flexible usage:
Reuse of standard jddd panels in other applications
Web interface (Applet)
Convertibility of the old CAF-files to a new format
