Abstract :
A two-processor data acquisition and analysis system incorporating CAMAC is discussed. The processors are a conventional mini-computer and a micro-programmed I/O processor which effects a programmable interface between the mini-computer and CAMAC. Hardware-software design considerations for a multi-processor acquisition and analysis system and procedural level computer/CAMAC interaction are also discussed.
