Synopsis

Here's the programming handbook that advanced users, professional developers, and computer scientists have been waiting for, the one that will help them exploit the full potential of the world's fastest-growing graphical programming platform: LabVIEW, from National Instruments. Written by a roster of expert contributors that reads like a "Who's Who of LabVIEW," this unique handbook explores such critically important topics as software quality assurance, formal software engineering methods, networking, and other advanced topics that, until now, havenÕt been discussed anywhere else. A bundled CD-ROM also includes numerous "virtual instruments" and a variety of LabVIEW programming tools and utilitiesÑall expressly designed to boost the productivity of advanced LabVIEW users.

From the Back Cover

Let the LabVIEW experts show you how to leverage the power of the world's fastest-growing graphical programming platform! In the test and measurement market, LabVIEW has become the dominant platform for graphical programming on both PCs and Macintoshes, as well as Sun and HP workstations. Advances in the LabVIEW development and runtime environments have made it increasingly competitive with textual languages like C--even in applications outside its traditional instrumentation market. Still, there hasn't been a resource--written by top experts--that shows advanced users, professional developers, and computer-scientists how to make the most of LabVIEW and its popular C language... until now. Gary Johnson's LabVIEW Power Programming brings together some of the world's foremost LabVIEW authorities, who explore such critically important topics as software quality assurance, format software engineering methods, networking, and other advanced techniques that simply aren't covered anywhere else. Written by a "Who's Who of LabVIEW," this one-of-a-kind, advanced LabVIEW programming book features: everything you need to know to fully network LabVIEW; in-depth discussions of interapplication communication and calls to external code; a LabVIEW software quality assurance (SQA) guide and toolkit; examination of mathematics, simulation, and signal processing issues. The book comes with a CD-ROM that provides numerous "virtual instruments" written in software. What's more, you'll also find a wide variety of LabVIEW programming tools and utilities--all expressly designed to boost the productivity of advanced LabVIEW users.
