Abstract

The aim of this review is to provide, whenever possible, a complete picture of the evolution of methods and systems for data readout, acquisition, and transfer at experimental nuclear physics setups over recent years for specialists who use electronics in experiments or measurements in applied research. In view of the large body of information this review is divided into two parts; small and geographically distributed systems are mainly considered in the first part. Both parts have a common classification table and common numbering of cited papers and figures.
