A proposal for a parallel-processing system based on data-driven array processors, digital signal processors and Transputers for trigger decision, data acquisition (DAQ) and compaction will be presented. The system is modular and suitable for any calorimeter size and type such as the ones proposed in the R&D for the LHC and SSC experiments. The aim is to give full programmability for trigger decisions and for the data compaction, over the entire calorimeter at the single-channel granularity level, with no boundary limitation. The present project is an example of the efficient integration of commercial components into the front-end electronics of future detectors for high energy physics (HEP), in place of developing new VLSI processors for this special purpose application.
