Abstract

In this review we discuss the evolution of the basic principles of the architecture of data-acquisition systems for experimental setups used in high-energy physics and relativistic nuclear physics during the last 25 years. The effect of the latest advances in computational techniques and communications, such as microprocessors and open bus system standards, on improving data recording and acquisition is discussed. The evolution of data-acquisition systems is illustrated by examples of developments occurring at the leading physics centers and at the Laboratory of High Energy Physics, JINR, Dubna. The trends in the future development of data-acquisition systems are described for the research programs at the LHCcollider, CERN, and the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory.
