Best-Practice Style Rules and Standards for Developing Quality LabVIEW SoftwareDrawing on the experiences of a world-class LabVIEW development organization, The LabVIEW Style Book is the definitive guide to best practices in LabVIEW development.Leading LabVIEW development manager Peter A. Blume presents practical guidelines or "rules" for optimizing every facet of your applications: ease of use, efficiency, readability, simplicity, performance, maintainability, and robustness. Blume explains each style rule thoroughly, presenting realistic examples and illustrations. He even presents "nonconforming" examples that show what not to do-and why not.Coverage includes:
- Significance of style: How good style improves quality and actually saves time over the full project life cycle
- Before you code: Configuring your LabVIEW environment, and organizing your files on disk and in the LabVIEW project
- LabVIEW project specifications: A specialized standard for specifying LabVIEW application requirements
- Efficient VI layout and development: front panel, block diagram, icons, and connectors
- Data structures: Choosing data types, efficient use of arrays and clusters, and special considerations with nested data structures
- Error handling strategies: Trapping and reporting errors for robust and reliable applications
- Design patterns: Standard VI architectures and application frameworks that promote good style
- Documentation: Essential rules for source code documentation and streamlining the process
- Code reviews: Enforcing a style convention using a checklist, the LabVIEW VI Analyzer Toolkit, and peer reviews
- Appendixes: Convenient glossary and style rules summary

Hall Mathematics, Barnes & Noble, Books A Million & AmazonThe graphical nature of LabVIEW makes it ideal for test and measurementapplications and results in significant productivity improvements overconventional programming languages. However, comprehensive treatments ofthe more advanced topics have been scattered and difficult to find-untilnow. LabVIEW Advanced Programming Techniques offers in-depth coverage ofthe subjects that move you to the next level of programming -the level thatallows full exploitation of LabVIEW's power and utility. These topicsinclude: Application structure: Discover a three-tiered architecture thatresults in robust, flexible, and easy to maintain code. State machines: Getextensive coverage of several types of state machines-arguably the mostuseful programming tool available. Exception Handling: Help detect,process, and resolve exceptions in your code. Instrument Drivers: See thevalue drivers bring to code readability and maintenance -Learn thetechniques for constructing reusable drivers. Multi-threading: Learn how tolook at a LabVIEW code diagram, determine which sections will execute onwhich thread of execution, and then optimize the performance of theapplication. Active X: Gain the background needed to build your own ActiveX controls to use in LabVIEW. Object Oriented Technologies: Get a cleardescription of object analysis and see examples of how it can apply toLabVIEW applications.
The sole in-depth, engineering-level guide to the popular graphicalprogramming language for virtual instrumentation is filled with practicaltips and techniques. Coverage includes instrument drivers, using the DAQLibrary, designing a DAQ system, data visualization, image processing, andautomated test applications. New material covers networking and sound/videoprogramming issues, along with other features of the latest LabVIEWreleases. The CD-ROM contains an extensive library of ready-to-use LabVIEWinstruments. An easy-to-use primer for anyone interested in the powerfuland practical LabVIEW programming language
This is for the professional programmer. Well-known author Gary Johnsonteaches LabVIEW to everybody! Blessed by National Instruments, thedevelopers of LabVIEW. Step-by-step information to fully network LabVIEW.CD of virtual instruments and tools. Let the LabVIEW experts show you howto leverage the power of the world's fastest-growing graphical programmingplatform! In the test and measurement market, LabVIEW has become thedominant platform for graphical programming on both PCs and Macintoshes, aswell as Sun and HP workstations. Advances in the LabVIEW development andruntime environments have made it increasingly competitive with textuallanguages like C--even in applications outside its traditionalinstrumentation market. Still, there hasn't been a resource--written by topexperts--that shows advanced users, professional developers, andcomputer-scientists how to make the most of LabVIEW and its popular Clanguage... until now. Gary Johnson's LabVIEW Power Programming bringstogether some of the world's foremost LabVIEW authorities, who explore suchcritically important topics as software quality assurance, format softwareengineering methods, networking, and other advanced techniques that simplyaren't covered anywhere else. Written by a "Who's Who of LabVIEW," thisone-of-a-kind, advanced LabVIEW programming book features: everything youneed to know to fully network LabVIEW; in-depth discussions ofinterapplication communication and calls to external code; a LabVIEWsoftware quality assurance (SQA) guide and toolkit; examination ofmathematics, simulation, and signal processing issues. The book comes witha CD-ROM that provides numerous "virtual instruments" written in software.What's more, you'll also find a wide variety of LabVIEW programming toolsand utilities--all expressly designed to boost the productivity of advancedLabVIEW users
Demonstrates the LabVIEW graphical programming language including its fourcontrol structures, three graphing modes, and File I/O. Also explores theleast-squares curve fitting and Fast Fourier Transform data analysistechniques, analog-to-digital and digital-to- analog functions, and GPIBcommunication. excellent text...any programmer trying to learn how tointerface computers to instruments and to understand programming languageconcepts should read this book.Good book for those who have gone thru the tutorial and looking for thenext stage on how to apply the simple concepts. Good follow up instructionfor the next stage.
