Abstract
The SNS control system is reviewed and the requirement for a distribution of processing power further than that afforded by the main control computers is outlined. Some of the specific microprocessor applications in the SNS are discussed. “MicroGRACES”, a general-purpose approach to the incorporation of microprocessors in equipment is described.
