Abstract :
NIM and CAMAC standards were evaluated for use in Space Shuttle experiment payloads. Six payloads were studied and it was found that 30 to 90% of the electronic functions could be performed with standard, commercially available modules. Only minor modifications are required to adapt the standards to the Shuttle requirements.
