Description
This book is a basic programming primer, starting with LabVIEW basics and building up through some very powerful programming concepts. It is written in a breezy, light style, and has been frequently recommended for its accessibility and readability. These strengths remain in place in the new edition, but we've added Richard Jennings of Sandia National Laboratories, another well-known figure in the LabVIEW community, to bring his peerless knowledge of real time and embedded applications to the party. Combined with a CD featuring an entirely new smorgasbord of virtual instruments and a demo of 6.0, this is a one-of-a kind LabVIEW starter kit.
Reviews / Votes
"Best "Practical application of Labview book" "I am a user of both Gary's book and the other person's book and I find myself reaching for Gary's book far more often than the other one. He covers some very advanced topics that are practical to many of us. His writing style allows for easy reading. The CD that is included has so many VI's that you will not know where to start" Reader Review, Amazon.comMore details

GARY W. JOHNSON is known throughout the LabVIEW community as a programming guru extraordinaire. An instrumentation engineer at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, he is one of the early adopters of LabVIEW and the author of all editions of this bestselling guide, the leading primary reference for general LabVIEW application development. He has previously edited LABVIEW POWER PROGRAMMING, a more advanced guide to the software, also available from McGraw-Hill. Gary has a BS degree in electrical engineering/ bioengineering from the University of Illinois and holds commercial radiotelephone and amateur radio licenses. His profesional interests include physics diagnostics, material xcharacterization, measurement and control systems, electro-optics, communications, transducers, analog circuit design, and, of course, LabVIEW programming. In his spare time, he enjoys woodworking, bicycling, and audio. He and his wife, Katherine, a scientific illustrator, live in Livermore, California, with their twin Afghan hounds, Chloe and Derby. RICHARD JENNINGS is a Senior Technologist and longtime LabVIEW programmer at Sandia National Laboratories in Livermore, California. He has been using LabVIEW for over 120 years and LabVIEW for Linux since its introduction. He has an AA degree in laser-electro optics from Texas State Technical College in Waco, Texas. He specializes in laboratory automation and finding new ways to use LabVIEW and Linux in Sandia's Combustion Research Facility.
