Detector and front-end integration

The SSC is a high luminosity hadron collider and produces high data rates. Extensive data processing and storage will be required close to the detector elements before the read-out of the entire event. We will review different ''generic'' front-end architectures for various detector subsystems. A few challenging technical questions like interconnects and the integration of Silicon detectors with the electronics are discussed. The merits of using bipolar or CMOS technology are reviewed
