A data acquisition and information handling system in Ada for electron spectroscopy

Published: 01 July 1989 Publication History

Abstract

A distributed, real time, data acquisition computer system for electron spectroscopy, ESCA, is presented. The design and implementation in Ada involves windowing, menus, forms, graphical presentation, multitasking and instrumental communication. Our experience using Ada is discussed. Ada has been used in all phases. Data types and packages are presented. It is found that the language is very suitable for scientific purposes.
