Abstract :
This paper reports the development, design, and installation of the first major undersea system to be based on the emerging Advanced Telecom Computing Architecture (ATCA). ATCA provides a modern, open- standard electronics platform for highly reliable network- centric systems. The ATCA system, installed in 2005 off the coast of Alaska, provides data acquisition and networking for thousands of low-noise, precision measurement sensors.
