Mark6: Design and Status
Abstract
The Mark 6 system is a disk-based data capture and record system, optimized for VLBI. As a follow-on to the successful Mark 5 family, it increases the maximum record rate to 16 Gb/s, using high-performance COTS (Commercial Off-the-Shelf) hardware and open-source software. This paper presents the Mark 6 design, with special emphasis on the software, and its current and future capabilities.
