Ctam. Delaat et al., A DISTRIBUTED DATA-ACQUISITION SYSTEM BY ATM NETWORKS - A PILOT-STUDY, IEEE transactions on nuclear science, 43(1), 1996, pp. 123-127
The capacity of data acquisition systems will improve by an order of m
agnitude with the advent of the new high-bandwidth network technology.
Data acquisition systems will really be scalable. To be in the front
line of the application of this new technology, we participate in the
Dutch national asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) pilot project SURFnet4
. In this framework we have initiated a project: ''Remote data acquisi
tion and analysis''. The aim is to have an ATM network between remote
VME front-ends and controlling and monitoring workstations.
