DMC to Host Virtual Chicago LabVIEW User Group on May 21

On May 21st, 2020, DMC will be hosting the next Chicago LabVIEW User Group (CLUG) meeting from 3:30-6:00 p.m. virtually via web meeting.

Come collaborate with LabVIEW software and NI hardware users in the Greater Chicago, IL area to improve on your current projects and get fresh ideas.

Discussion Topic

Presentation of DMC's SEA Monster and OO-based Framework
DMC will be presenting on the evolution of the frameworks used at DMC over the last decade. We will highlight the “SEA Monster,” a state machine built on a queued message handler with different States-Events-Actions. This framework has been used for over a decade on many of DMC’s projects.

We will discuss the SEA Monster's numerous benefits, which have led to its longevity.  We will also identify some of the drawbacks that have incentivized more recent efforts to utilize Object-Oriented (OO) programming. Unlike traditional OO programming in LabVIEW, DMC has gravitated toward a by-reference model of programming, which we will explain and demo. 

Come hear from DMC on these two frameworks and how they contribute to scalable and maintainable solutions over time. We look forward to hearing your thoughts on state machine and OO-based architectures.

This user group will be held virtually via Zoom.
