Abstract :
The current computing facilities at TUNL have been in operation for 14 years. Design considerations for a new computer system, to be installed and operational by mid 1980, are discussed. The new large memory 32 bit minicomputers appear to provide the most cost effective way of handling the data acquisition and analysis needs of a medium size nuclear physics laboratory.
