  • Abstract
    The CDF Data Acquisition System is described, concentrating on the flow of data through the Data Acquisition Pipeline. Access to the Event Data by monitoring Processes running on the array of VAX Computers comprising the primary user interface is discussed, together with some of the utilities available by which the Physicist may interact with the Online System.
