Plans for (P)over-barANDA online computing

The (P) over bar ANDA experiment will not use any hardware trigger, i.e. all raw data are streaming in the data acquisition with a bandwidth of <= 280GB/s. The (P) over bar ANDA Online System is designed to perform data reduction by a factor of similar or equal to 800 by reconstruction algorithms programmed in VHDL (Very High Speed Integrated Circuit Hardware Description Language) on FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays).
