dc.description.abstractThis dissertation presents a project to develop a real-time trigger that is hardware reconfigurable, triggering on user specified events, and captures data for permanent storage and later processing. This triggering platform is planned to replace previous analogue triggering systems that involve time-consuming manual tasks of connecting analogue electronics with NIM components. These manual tasks involve a multitude of wiring connections and their timings are error prone. Multiple on-going experiments could not time-share the expensive NIM electronics, implying lengthy waits between experiments and inefficient resource us- age. The new triggering platform provides significant time saving for physicists setting up experiments, together with a model- based system that speeds up the design and setting-up of experiments.en_ZA
