NI Releases LabVIEW 8.5

New Version Delivers Power of Multicore Processors
NI has announced LabVIEW 8.5, the latest version of the graphical system design platform for test, control, and embedded system development. Building on nearly 10 years of investment in multithreading technology, LabVIEW 8.5 simplifies multicore as well as FPGA-based application development with its intuitive parallel dataflow language. As processor manufacturers look to parallel multicore architectures for performance improvements, LabVIEW 8.5 running on these new processors can deliver faster test throughput, more efficient processor-intensive analysis, and more reliable real-time systems on dedicated processor cores.
