Abstract

Modular programming for the handling of data on-line with a general purpose digital computer considerably simplifies the programming task. A system called ROMEO implementing this concept has been developed. More than 150 relocatable, self-contained programs of some 30 types have been prepared and used in a nuclear physics experiment using an SDS 920 computer. These programs, falling into the housekeeping, data accumulate, data manipulate, and data output categories, are described briefly and their use in the experiment is discussed. About 30 of these programs are stored in fast memory concurrently with loading and deleting possible during the experiment.
