Publication abstract: 

In this work, the performance of a proposed algorithm to search for clusters in the PANDA electromagnetic calorimeter (EMC) in real time, which provides vital informationfor the online event selection procedure, is discussed. Two implementations will be discussed and compared to each other and to a third, less suited algorithm (at least, as far as online usage is concerned). After this, the implementation in the readout hardware and concepts for the following data collection network will be presented.
