Title: Studies and research concerning BNFP: descriptions and specifications of components for a computerized nuclear materials control and accounting system

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/709714· OSTI ID:709714

Computerization of the Barnwell Nuclear Fuel Plant Nuclear Materials Control and Accounting System is planned. This system, referred to as the Computerized Nuclear Materials Control and Accounting System (CNMCAS), represents a modular network of computers, communications equipment, and data storage devices to demonstrate a sophisticated, automated nuclear materials management capability. The CNMCAS is comprised of the Laboratory Data System which is in place and functioning and the Special Nuclear Materials Control and Accounting System. The hardware for the latter has been installed and checked out. The two systems provide mutual redundancy which allow one system to perform all functions (at a slower pace) in the event of an outage of the other system. (auth)
