Description

We present a study of the administration and analysis of simulated nuclear 3-fold coincidences implemented on a 100-processor transputer system, which has a computational capacity of about 150 Mflops. From a simple model of a level scheme the corresponding 'data' is extracted in the form of three-dimensional addresses with background. The data structure and the analysis rate is studied. Further, a set of real data is used to estimate the rate of sort to be performed. The feasibility of using such a system to analyse large data spaces is discussed. (orig.)
