RTI Connext DDS

LabVIEW Integration

Large scale distributed applications are experiencing an explosion in the number of connected sensors, devices, systems and subsystems. Program managers, system architects and system engineers must adopt new methodologies and technologies to meet the ever more challenging system price/performance tradeoffs.

RTI and National Instruments (NI) are working together to provide robust and proven products and solutions designed to address the ever-growing need for efficient data distribution in distributed systems. Developing heterogeneous distributed systems is a complex challenge. Individual subsystems are often developed by independent teams or third parties, and/or leverage existing or legacy systems.

System development, integration and testing can be extraordinarily challenging. These complexities can be reduced substantially by leveraging the combined power of Connext DDS and National Instruments LabVIEW. DDS and LabVIEW together allow the development of advanced and unique system architectures to simplify system integration, data communication, network bandwidth management and redundancy.

BUSINESS BENEFITS LabVIEW and DDS Next generation technologies Enable advanced system architectures Cost and Schedule Substantially reduce application programming effort Reduce system integration and upgrade timelines Risk Reduction Field proven vendors and products Open and modular systems approach

TECHNICAL BENEFITS Peer-to-peer communications Real-time publish/subscribe SOA paradigm - ease of integration Dynamic discovery Reliable multicast support Time and Content filters End-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) LabVIEW, C, C++, Java, C#/.NET, ADA UDPv4/v6, TCP, shared memory, etc.

In this short video, see how LabVIEW and Connext DDS are used together to efficiently develop distributed systems. The video includes a comprehensive demonstration of an air traffic control system under development using LabVIEW and DDS, and then takes the viewer through a step-by-step walkthrough of how to build an application from scratch.
