 WAO'98 Abstract

   The Advanced Photon Source is a third generation X-ray source made
   up of four accelerators: a linac, an accumulation ring (PAR), a
   booster synchrotron and the Storage Ring. A group of 22 people
   operate this facility, occupying the Main Control Room around the
   clock.

   Among the items discussed will be the make up of the Operations
   Group, how the group conducts its business, crew scheduling,
   operational scheduling and the use of the APS intranet in
   operations.
