	In the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS), finding the source of an interlock signal has become increasingly unmanageable due to the complex interdependencies between the agents in both the beam interlock system (BIS) and the software interlock system (SIS). This often leads to delays, with the inefficiency in diagnosing beam stops impacting the overall performance of the accelerator. The Interlock Super Agent (ISA) was introduced to address this challenge. It traces the interlocks responsible for beam stops, regardless of whether they originated in BIS or SIS. By providing a better understanding of interdependencies, ISA significantly improves machine efficiency by reducing time for diagnosis and by documenting such events through platforms such as the Accelerator Fault Tracking system. The paper will discuss the practical implementation of ISA and its potential application throughout the CERN accelerator complex.

	Numerous standalone web applications have been developed over the last 10 years to support the configuration and operation of the CERN accelerator complex. These applications have different levels of complexity, but they all support hundreds of users for essential activities. A monolithic architecture has been utilised so far, tailoring the standalone applications to specific accelerator needs. The global GUI technology landscape continues to evolve quickly, with most GUI technologies typically reaching end-of-life within 1-to-5 years. Keeping up-to-date with technologies presents a major challenge for the GUI application maintainers, with larger monolithic applications requiring long migration cycles which impede the introduction of new functionalities during the migration phase. To tackle the above issues within the CERN Controls domain, a new Micro Frontend architecture has been introduced and is being used to gradually migrate a large and complex AngularJS-based web application to Angular. This paper introduces the new generic architecture, which is not tied to any specific web framework. The development workflow, challenges, and lessons learned so far will be covered. The differences of this approach, particularly when compared to monolithic application technology migrations, will also be discussed.

Numerous standalone web applications have been developed over the last 10 years to support the configuration and operation of the CERN accelerator complex. These applications have different levels of complexity, but they all support hundreds of users for essential activities. A monolithic architecture has been utilised so far, tailoring the standalone applications to specific accelerator needs. The global GUI technology landscape continues to evolve quickly, with most GUI technologies typically reaching end-of-life within 1-to-5 years. Keeping up-to-date with technologies presents a major challenge for the GUI application maintainers, with larger monolithic applications requiring long migration cycles which impede the introduction of new functionalities during the migration phase. To tackle the above issues within the CERN Controls domain, a new Micro Frontend architecture has been introduced and is being used to gradually migrate a large and complex AngularJS-based web application to Angular. This paper introduces the new generic architecture, which is not tied to any specific web framework. The development workflow, challenges, and lessons learned so far will be covered. The differences of this approach, particularly when compared to monolithic application technology migrations, will also be discussed.
