Abstract
The base-line design and implementation of the ATLAS DAQ DataFlow system is described. The main components of the DataFlow system, their interactions, bandwidths, and rates are discussed and performance measurements on a 10% scale prototype for the final ATLAS TDAQ DataFlow system are presented. This prototype is a combination of custom design components and of multithreaded software applications implemented in C++ and running in a Linux environment on commercially available PCs interconnected by a fully switched gigabit Ethernet network.
