General Information
In many modern instruments, device are distributed across the network, where network can be ethernet, USB, GPIB, RS232, internet, GRID, etc. Device can be virtual (consist of multiple physical device, or an imaginary device). If control system does not use the distributed device paradigm, like EPICS where only the process variables are exposed from the distributed environment, the GumTree control system adaptor should provide mapping between GumTree device object (proxy) to some component in the control system.
