Abstract

Calculations of neutron-physical constants for software complex “KASKAD” ¹
require the processing of large amounts of information.
This report focuses on the development of a uniform system of NRC KI creating,
editing , recording and storage of all types of data on the fuel assemblies, as well as the
implementation of multi-level access to this data for any number of users.
A GUI is written in C# (C Sharp) programming environment Microsoft Visual Studio
2008. As a server, a relational BANK using Microsoft SQL Server 2008. The GUI combines
an intuitive interface with extensive editing of data, which on the one hand simplifies the
development, on the other hand, allows experienced users to work faster and more efficiently
with a minimum of errors.
The interface provides data processing and editing an object according to pattern, i.e.
opening the fuel assembly is divided into the main components, such as materials, structures
(tubes, tablets), cell (fuel elements, absorbers, burnable absorbers, sensors TDM channels).
Such an approach to the storage and processing of information provides a more systematic
storage of raw data.
