Integrating LabVIEW into a Distributed Computing Environment

Other Computer Science 2010-05-27 v1

Abstract

Being easy to learn and well suited for a self-contained desktop laboratory setup, many casual programmers prefer to use the National Instruments LabVIEW environment to develop their logic. An ActiveX interface is presented that allows integration into a plant-wide distributed environment based on the Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS). This paper discusses the design decisions and provides performance information, especially considering requirements for the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) diagnostics system.
