 # DataForge-control
-Data acquisition framework based on DataForge
+
+DataForge-control is a data acquisition framework (work in progress). It is
+based on DataForge, a software framework for automated data processing. 
+This repository contains a prototype of API and simple implementation 
+of a slow control system, including a demo.
+
+DataForge-control uses some concepts and modules of DataForge, 
+such as `Meta` (immutable tree-like structure) and `MetaItem` (which 
+includes a scalar value, or a tree of values, easily convertable to/from JSON 
+if needed).  
+
+To learn more about DataForge, please consult the following URLs:
+ * [Kotlin multiplatform implementation of DataForge](https://github.com/mipt-npm/dataforge-core)  
+ * [DataForge documentation](http://npm.mipt.ru/dataforge/) 
+ * [Original implementation of DataForge](https://bitbucket.org/Altavir/dataforge/src/default/)
+
+DataForge-control is a [Kotlin-multiplatform](https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/multiplatform.html)
+application. Asynchronous operations are implemented with 
+[kotlinx.coroutines](https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines) library.
+
+
+### Features
+Among other things, you can:
+- Describe devices and their properties. 
+- Collect data from devices and execute arbitrary actions supported by a device.
+- Property values can be cached in the system and requested from devices as needed, asynchronously.
+- Connect devices to event bus via bidirectional message flows.
+
+### `dataforge-control-core` module packages
+
+- `api` - defines API for device management. The main class here is 
+[`Device`](dataforge-control-core/src/commonMain/kotlin/hep/dataforge/control/api/Device.kt).
+Generally, a Device has Properties that can be read and written. Also, some Actions
+can optionally be applied on a device (may or may not affect properties). 
+
+- `base` - contains baseline `Device` implementation 
+[`DeviceBase`](dataforge-control-core/src/commonMain/kotlin/hep/dataforge/control/base/DeviceBase.kt) 
+and property implementation, including property asynchronous flows.
+
+- `controllers` - implements Message Controller that can be attached to the event bus, Message 
+and Property flows.
+
+### `demo` module
+
+The demo includes a simple mock device with a few properties changing as `sin` and `cos` of
+the current time. The device is configurable via a simple TornadoFX-based control panel. 
+You can run a demo by executing `application/run` Gradle task. 
+
+The graphs are displayed using [plotly.kt](https://github.com/mipt-npm/plotly.kt) library.
