Many investigations, such as low-angle or fibre diffraction studies on biological materials carried out with synchrotron radiation (Boulin, Dainton, Dorrington, Elsner, Gabriel, Bordas & Koch, 1982[link]; Huxley & Faruqi, 1983[link]), involve the time variation of a diffraction pattern. For very short time slots, only counters can be employed; the incoming pulses must then be gated and stored in an appropriate memory (Faruqi & Bond, 1982[link]).

Stores used for these experiments are described as histogramming memories; the contents of a given storage location are incremented by one whenever the corresponding address, which represents the position and the time of arrival of a photon, appears on the address bus (Hendricks, Seeger, Scheer & Suehiro, 1982[link]; Hughes & Sumner, 1981[link]).
