The MARaBOU project

MARaBOU is a framework for online data acquisition and as offline analysis for nuclear physics experiments. It was developed at the Tandem Laboratory in Garching operated by the University (LMU) and Technical University (TUM) Munich. Design principle of MARaBOU is that the user only sees and communicates with a ROOT based system running on Linux whereas the hardware of the experiment is housed in CAMAC and VME controlled by processors running Lynx OS on VME processors.

Fig. 1 gives an overview on the dataflow within the system.
