The Use of Structured Analysis and Design in the Engineering of the TRIUMF Data Acquisition and Analysis System
G.A. Ludgate, B. Haley, L. Lee, Y. N. Miles · IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science · 1987
A contemporary system building design notation was adopted for the engineering of TRIUMF's new VAX-based data acquisition and analysis system. The requirements of automated systems' design notations are discussed and the elements of the chosen notation described. Finally the group's experience in designing a data acquisition system with these techniques is presented.
