Abstract
A memory-intensive functional architecture suitable for distributed data acquisition, monitoring and control systems with large numbers of microprocessor based nodes has been conceptually developed and applied in several large scale and some smaller systems. This discussion concentrates on (a) the basic architecture; (b) expansions as they become feasible in view of continuing rapid developments in the microprocessor technology and in functional large-scale integration circuits; (c) the implementation of some key hardware and software structures; and (d) two system implementations, which are (1) a system for monitoring and managing of animal inhalation chambers and restricted access rooms as well as for experimental data acquisition and data analysis at an Inhalation Toxicology Research Facility and (2) a data acquisition and control system for a spectrometer with a 20 by 20 cm position-sensitive detector used in neutron scattering experiments at the Brookhaven High Flux Beam Reactor.
