We propose to establish the infrastructure for a modern nuclear instrumentation laboratory that will attract and instruct students in methods directly applicable to nuclear engineering and physics related applications. Specifically, laboratory will be used for hands on training of the skill sets appropriate for serving the nuclear power fleet, national labs, or technology based industries for the next generation. The emphasis will be on real time insrumentation using modern digital equipment.


According to the IAEA, about 40% of the worlds operating nuclear reactors have modernized their analog based instrumentation and control systems with digital technology.

1997 report

ISBN: 978-0-309-05732-5, 128 pages, 8.5 x 11, paperback (1997)Digital Instrumentation and Control Systems in Nuclear Power Plants: Safety and Reliability Issues Committee on Application of Digital Instrumentation and Control Systems to Nuclear Power Plant Operations and Safety, National Research Council

"Conclusion 2. The lack of actual design and implementation of large I&C systems for U.S. nuclear power plants makes it difficult to use learning from experience as a basis for im- proving how the nuclear industry and the USNRC deal with systems aspects."
