Descripción
Sumario:CASCADE, a multi-processor real-time data-acquisition system for HEP experiments developed at CERN by the ECP-DS group, has now been in operation for one year. The current implementation supports configurations based on VMEbus processors running OS-9 and on UNIX workstations interconnected via VICbus or Ethernet. The project is reviewed by describing the main characteristics of the package, the applications in which it has been used, and the results of this experience. The main improvements of 1994, which include a parameterized multi-level event builder, a remote monitoring option and a powerful run control facility, as well as ongoing developments and prospects for 1995, are presented.
