Description

The data processing system for the large tokamak JT-60 has hierarchical structure of a duplex of general-purpose computers and 16 bit microcomputers housed in CAMAC modules. It is characterized by 1) real-time ability to process diagnostic data to feed the results to the control computers for plasma control purpose; 2) recording of all the raw diagnostic data into a PCM recorder; 3) use of high-speed optical fiber links for transmission of data and timing signals; 4) equipment of large general purpose computers with powerful data management and analysis ability; etc.. The number of diagnostic devices is approximately 30, the total number of channels is approximately 22,000 and the amount of raw data is approximately 100 MB/shot
