The liverpool nuclear structure on-line computer system

Abstract An on-line data collection and analysis system is described. It has been designed to control data collection, given an event by event record of an experiment on magnetic tape, provide initial on-line data analysis into a maximum of 64K of spectra strored on a magnetic drum and display any spectra and other information the physicist requires. All programs are stored on the drum with fast direct transfer to core for execution upon receipt of simple teletype commands.
