IPbus extension for the ALFRED framework
We present a development of the ALFRED framework that includes support for the IPbus protocol, created for the Fast Interaction Trigger (FIT) detector in the ALICE experiment at CERN. This modification resolves the incompatibility between the current GBT-based slow-control protocols and the FIT electronics, which is based on the IPbus. A compatibility layer, named ALF IPbus, was created in C++ and integrated with DIM services, allowing for the transparent conversion of SWT frames into IPbus tra…

Sharpness for monotone absorbing Interacting Particle Systems
We prove a sharpness result for the dynamics of finite-range Interacting Particle Systems (IPS) on $\{0,1\}^{\mathbb Z^d}$. Starting from an IPS that is monotone, ergodic, and which admits the all-zero configuration as an absorbing state, we prove that there exists an arbitrarily small perturbation of the dynamics which leads to an \emph{exponentially} ergodic IPS. This extends the sharpness result previously established for (discrete-time) probabilistic cellular automata in \cite{Har} to the c…
