A contemporary system building design notation was adopted for the engineering of TRIUMF's new VAX-based data acquisition and analysis system. The requirements of automated systems' design notations are discussed and the elements of the chosen notation described. Finally the group's experience in designing a data acquisition system with these techniques is presented.
