ompact ATS Orbis will PXIbased test system with a custom ITA and VME interfaces bine design and build a prototype called Compact Tester test system. Compact Tester with 12 cubic feet of 18slot PXI chassis test system replaces the 84 cubic feet of test systems. Compared with the previous test systems, cost reduction of 3 times, 15 times smaller footprint, weight 25 times, this difference is very significant. In addition, the use of industrystandard PXI hardware and LabVIEW software, we were also able to reduce the daily operation and maintenance costs. In addition to achieving all the goals set for the Compact Tester, the PXIbased system also has other advantages. Interconnection due to the size and mass reduction, thereby pleting the number of cables required for each test is significantly reduced. Which in turn allows us to reduce the cable can acquire more real signals, greatly improving the accuracy of each measurement. With LabVIEW, NI TestStand and NI PXI modular instruments, Orbis Compact Tester quickly developed a prototype to demonstrate the Navy. Navy test new functionality provided by the system, the potential cost savings, as well as reducing signal noise RFI spares returned to the Treasury to reduce the time and other advantages cooing.Multithreaded programming challenge To date, the processor technology in the field of innovation has made your puter is working at higher clock speed of the central processing unit (CPU). However, as the clock rate approaching its theoretical physical limits with multiple (rather than individual) among the new processors are in the research and development of nuclear. Take advantage of these new multicore processor for automated test applications using parallel programming techniques, you can achieve the best performance and highest throughput. Dr Edward Leethe University of California, Berkeley, distinguished professor of electrical and puter engineering departmentdescribe parallel processing technology. Many technology experts predicted that response will be the end of Moore39。s increasingly parallel puter architectures. If we want to continue to improve performance, puter programs must be able to take advantage of the parallelism. ”Also, take advantage of multicore processor application programming is a huge programming challenges, and this is widely accepted. Microsoft founder Bill Gatesabout this challenge has this passage: To fully harness the power of parallel processors, ... Software must be able to deal with concurrency issues. But, as any writing m
