Abstract :
The design of computer - CAMAC interfaces has been, up to now, a largely "intuitive" process concentrating on hardware with almost no attention to software and other system level considerations. This paper offers some suggestions for improved interface design and introduces a means of quantitatively evaluating interface performance.
