  • Abstract
    Hardware data emulators are used to deploy a large-scale model of the ATLAS data acquisition architecture. The emulators, based on FPGAs and on the Alteon gigabit Ethernet NIC, are described, and their performance determined. The emulators are used in the large-scale test bed; sample results are presented.
