Abstract :
Experience in the design and operation of a previously reported (1) hardware-software computer-based on-line nxuclear physics data acquisition system is described. Major emphasis is placed upon the structure of the programming system, which embodies data acquisition, display, control,, and analysis facilities, and a supervisor capable of coordinating the parallel operation of multiple tasks. Basic concepts, rather than details, are stressed throughout.
