Abstract :
Focussing on the goals of integration and ease of use a system for processing hemodynamic signals, logging events, and advanced postprocessing was implemented based on standard PC hardware, a state-of-the-art graphical user interface (GUI), and a Unix operating system. We report on the design, implementation, and successful operation since November ´95.
