The International Workshop on Personal Computers and Particle Accelerators (PCaPAC) will be held in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan Canada on October 5-8, 2010.

PCaPAC traditionally focuses on low cost control systems using PC technology for control and data acquisition systems. PCaPAC also has a focus on emerging technology including Web 2.0, cyber-security, middle-ware, FPGAs, real-time operating systems, use of commercial-off-the-shelf systems and modern rapid development environments.

Original papers (not previously published or presented) from the field of accelerator control and data acquisition including experiment data acquisition systems with a special emphasis on smaller scale system and industrial systems are invited.

The scientific program will include invited talks, contributed orals, posters, and workshop sessions. Special break-out sessions are planned on Control System Studio, Labview, synchrotron experiment data file standards, and use of RTEMS.
