LabVIEW™ Advanced Programming Techniques
SECOND EDITION
by : Rick Bitter, Taqi Mohiuddin, Matt Nawrocki

As the power of the standard personal computer has steadily evolved, so have the capabilities of LabVIEW. LabVIEW has simplified the working lives of thousands of scientists, engineers, and technicians, and has increased their productivity. Automation has reduced the costs and increased the manufacturing outputs of factories around the world. Cycle times for product development have been shortened and quality of many products has steadily improved. LabVIEW does not get credit for all of these improvements, but has without question played a valuable role in many organizations for accomplishing these goals.

The chapters in this book are written in a manner that will allow readers to study the topic of interest without having to read the contents in sequential order. Users of LabVIEW with varying levels of expertise will find this book beneficial.

Image Acquisition and Processing with LabVIEW fills a hole in the LabVIEW technical publication range. It is intended for competent LabVIEW programmers, as a general training manual for those new to National Instruments’ (NI) Vision application development and a reference for more-experienced vision programmers.

It is assumed that readers have attained programming knowledge comparable to that taught in the NI LabVIEW Basics II course (see http://www.ni.com/training for a detailed course outline). The book covers introductions and theory of general image acquisition and processing topics, while providing more in-depth discussions and examples of speciÞc NI Vision tools.

This book is a comprehensive IMAQ and Vision resource combining reference material, theory on image processing techniques, information on how LabVIEW and the NI Vision toolkit handle each technique, examples of each of their uses and realworld case studies, all in one book.

Practical Statecharts in C/C++ − Quantum Programming for Embedded Systems
Miro Samek, Ph.D.
CMP Books

This book is intended for the following computer professionals interested in reactive, or event−driven, systems. Embedded programmers and consultants will find practical advice, explanations, and plenty of code that they can use as is or modify to build event−driven software.

• Real−time systems designers will find a lightweight
• alternative to heavyweight CASE tools formodeling real−time systems. The Quantum Framework, combined with a preemptive RTOS, can provide deterministic behavior and can be embedded in commercial products.
• Users of design automation tools will better understand the inner workings of their tools, helping them to use the tools more efficiently and confidently.
• GUI developers, interactive Web page designers, and computer game programmers using C or C++ will find nontrivial, working examples of how to code and integrate UML statecharts with GUI environments such as the Microsoft Windows API.
• Hardware designers exploring the extension of C or C++ with class libraries to model SoC (System on Chip) designs will find one of the most succinct and efficient implementations of hierarchical state machines.
• Graduate−level students of Computer Science or Electrical Engineering will learn many design patterns that are backed up by numerous examples and exercises.

Automotive Embedded Systems Handbook
edited by Nicolas Navet, Francoise Simonot-Lion

The objective of the Automotive Embedded Systems Handbook is to provide a comprehensive overview about existing and future automotive electronic systems. The distinctive features of the automotive world in terms of requirements, technologies, and business models are highlighted and state-of-the-art methodological and technical solutions are presented in the following areas:

• In-vehicle architectures
• Multipartner development processes (subsystem integration, product linemanagement, etc.)
• Software engineering methods
• Embedded communications
• Safety and dependability assessment: validation,
• verification, and testing
  

The Art of Designing Embedded Systems
Second Edition
By Jack Ganssle

For the purpose of this book, an embedded system is any application where a dedicated computer is built right into the system. While this definition can apply even to major weapon systems based on embedded blade servers, here I address the perhaps less glamorous but certainly much more common applications using 8-, 16-, and 32-bit processors.

Historically, embedded systems were programmed by hardware designers, since only they
understood the detailed bits and bytes of their latest creation. With the paradigm of the microprocessor as a controller, it was natural for the digital engineer to design as well as code a simple sequencer. Unfortunately, most hardware people were not trained in design methodologies, data structures, and structured programming. The result: many early microprocessor-based products were built on thousands of lines of devilishly complicated spaghetti code. The systems were un-maintainable, sometimes driving companies out of business.
