Abstract
FASTBUS is currently being specified for the electronics of nearly all the new generation of high energy physics experiments in Europe. The emphasis in FASTBUS device development has shifted from design and test support towards electronics dedicated to read-out systems for detectors, event formatting and on-line processing. This paper offers a rationale, illustrated by several of the more important recent developments, for the adoption of FASTBUS as the appropriate standard for use in the European Physics environment.
