## PCMON

* "A PC monitoring application that runs as an {{IOC_program}}
  ({{EPICS}} + Linux) and monitors the available resources."

PCMON hasn't been used in this project, because you have to install it on the computer you want
to monitor (no remote monitoring).

## AsynSSH

* "A standard Asyn driver interface for message based communications using the
  {{SSH}} protocol."
* <web-archive:20240405065028/http://observatorysciences.co.uk/assets/uploads/downloads/asynSSH_EPICS_Developers_Manual_V1-0.pdf>
* <web-archive:20240522183003/https://observatorysciences.co.uk/downloads_epics_drivers.php>

`AsynSSH` hasn't been used either in this project, because it seems unmaintained since 31/05/2013,
and because the associated documentation present it as a "draft".
