Block-Oriented Instrument Software Design
Yves Rolain, Wendy Van Moer · IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement · 2004
A new method for writing instrumentation software is proposed. It is based on the abstract description of the instrument operation and combines the advantages of a reconfigurable instrument and interchangeability of the instrumentation modules. The proposed test case is the implementation of a microwave network analyzer for nonlinear systems based on VISA and plug and play instrument drivers.
