 DAQ & Analysis

 

  

Group Account

You are recommended to get a group account in order to use the online stations for Data AcQuisition (DAQ) and the data disks for data analysis. The online stations and data disks are the parts of the new IBM system.

 

 

Online Station

There are two online computers, kasuga1 and kasuga2. They are the IBM RS/6000 44P model 270 with the AIX operating system. These computers are used for the data acquisition (DAQ) of the experiments at the Ring Cyclotron facility. The data are stored on the 150GB local disk, and they can be transfered to the data disks for the offline analysis.


Data Disk

Now about 9TB disk space is available for the offline data analysis of the experiements at the Ring Cyclotron facility. The disk system provides outstanding disk storage performance with advanced SSA bandwidth of 160 MB/sec.

 

 


DAQ

The high-speed data acquisition (DAQ) system is used for the experiments with Grand Raiden, Focal Plane Polarimenter, and/or Large Acceptance spectrometer. The data such as ADC and TDC are stored in high speed memory modules, and then they are transferred to a host computer through reflective memory modules.


Q-Paw System

The Q-PAW system is based on the Q and PAW systems developed at LAMPF and CERN, respectively. Several interactive routines useful for the online analysis are also implemented. This system supports the Open VMS and Digital Unix operating systems.

 

 


LoadLeveler

LoadLeveler is a job management system that allows users to run more jobs in less time by matching their processing needs to available resources. Loadleveler serves as a job scheduler and provides a facility for building, submitting, and processing jobs quickly and efficiently in a dynamic environment.
