abstract = {{The Laser MegaJoule, a 176-beam laser facility developed by CEA, is located near Bordeaux. It is part of the French Simulation Program, which combines improvement of theoretical models used in various domains of physics and high performance numerical simulation. It is designed to deliver about 1.4 MJ of energy on targets, for high energy density physics experiments, including fusion experiments. The LMJ technological choices were validated on the LIL, a scale-1 prototype composed of 1 bundle of 4-beams. The first bundle of 8-beams was commissioned in October 2014 with the realisation of the first experiment on the LMJ facility. The operational capabilities are increasing gradually every year until the full completion by 2025. By the end of 2023, 18 bundles of 8-beams will be assembled and 15 bundles are expected to be fully operational. In this paper, a presentation of the LMJ Control System architecture is given. A description of the integration platform and simulation tools, located outside the LMJ facility, is given. Finally, a review of the LMJ status report is detailed with an update on the LMJ and PETAL activities. }},
