Abstract :
The integrated data acquisition/analysis system for nuclear experiments is described. The selection criteria for the multi-processor system is discussed and the current configuration and planned expansion is shown. Operational rates and limitations of this system are given for some typical experiments. An overview of the multi-tasking software and user interfaces is given.
