1 Carl Rago LCLS Linac Design Document Presentation I Caveat Emptor Thanks to the LCLS Linac for the opportunity to talk about Design Organization / Documentation. Any credibility comes from the long study of SLAC/SSRL & NLC work process. –I lie, cheat, and will steal when necessary! –I have experienced or were possibly personally responsible for many really good SLAC failures! –I’m a proponent revisionism! –I’m lazy to hell. Personally driven to help improve ‘project design process’ by promoting clear, simple, uniform, and early design product directions. I will need help to collect critical design information to improve project management and demonstrate clearly exceptional designs.
