In this context, ESPRESSO, the next generation high-stability spectrograph for the VLT and to a certain extent, a precursor of HiRes, has adopted since the preliminary design phase those solutions. Based on the ESPRESSO experience and taking into account the requirements inferred from the preliminary Hi-Res studies in terms of both high-level operations as well as low-level control, I will present in this paper the current proposal for the HiRes hardware architecture. <P />ELETTRONICOenArticlehttp://sait.oat.ts.astro.it/MSAIt860315/index.html2015MmSAI..86..498DFIS/05 - ASTRONOMIA E ASTROFISICA
