Abstract: The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) project is an international collaboration aimed at building the world’s largest radio telescope, with eventually over a square kilometre of collecting area, co-hosted by South Africa, for the mid-frequency arrays, and Australia for the low-frequency array. Since 2015 the SKA Consortia joined in a global effort to identify, investigate and select a single control system framework suitable for providing the functionalities required by the SKA telescope monitoring and control. The TANGO Controls [2] framework has been selected and comprehensive work has started to provide telescope-wide detailed guidelines, design patterns and architectural views to build Element and Central monitoring and control systems exploiting the TANGO Controls framework capabilities.
