  • Abstract
    This paper presents the development of the JET Control and Data Acquisition System over the lifetime of JET. It presents a short overview of the original design. It traces the development including the change of operating system (to UNIX) and the addition of VME and PC based diagnostic subsystems to the original CAMAC-only systems. The increase in data collected and stored is also be presented
