Anyone knows of any good LabVIEW Advanced Architectures Book?

No much books around... There is A Software Engineering Approach to LabVIEW but it's from 2003 so nothing on LabVIEW oriented-object programming, which is a big miss if you do a large app.

No much books around... There is A Software Engineering Approach to LabVIEW, but it's from 2003 so nothing on LabVIEW oriented-object programming, which is a big miss if you do a large app. IMHO there's a lot more modern ressourcs on the NI LargeApps community, or the LAVA architecture forum.

The LargeApps and LAVA Architecture Forum are indeed very good resources (and very current as well). – Erick Tejada Mar 29 '11 at 13:30.

The LabVIEW Style Book seems to be worth consideration (I don't own a copy although it's been on my list). It has mostly excellent reviews at Amazon. Drawing 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. This book will be indispensable to anyone who wants to develop or maintain quality LabVIEW applications: developers, managers, and end users alike. Additionally, it will also be valuable to those preparing for NI's Certified LabVIEW Developer or Certified LabVIEW Architect exams, which contain significant content on development style.

EDIT : There's also this more general question on LabVIEW Reference Material. (It also points to the LabVIEW Style Book. ).

Of all the materials I have browsed over the internet, this seems to be the one most current. Has any experienced LabVIEW programmer used this book? – Erick Tejada Mar 29 '11 at 13:25 The comments and reviews on Amazon suggest that even those with experience will benefit from it.

– gary comtois Mar 30 '11 at 1:18 I have found the Style Book to be extremely useful: it contains a bunch of handy design patterns for creating large applications, as well as other useful advice. – onnodb Apr 28 '11 at 19:42.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
