Sumario:ALFA - Absolute Luminosity For ATLAS - is a system of tracker-type detectors which primary goal is to measure absolute luminosity. In the talk the principle of the measurement, the summary of planned physics program and the actual status of the ALFA detector installation are given. The second part of the talk is devoted to a short overview of complementary luminosity measurements used by ATLAS collaboration.
