NIWeek 2008 Keynote PresentationsTuesday, August 5
Engineers and scientists are exploring ways to positively impact the environment and bottom line. From more power-efficient test systems to areas such as renewable energy, environmental monitoring, and energy-efficient machines, engineers and scientists are working hard to meet the most pressing and complex challenges. Dr. James Truchard explains how graphical system design makes green engineering possible from measurements - through acquisition, analysis, and presentation - to more efficient designs.
Tim Dehne, NI engineers, and industry experts showcase an exciting display of new products and innovative solutions from National Instruments and its customers that set new standards for increased efficiency, economic value, and green engineering. Learn about the latest products and applications of the NI graphical system design platform in automated test, industrial measurement and control, and embedded design.

"Do for engineers and scientists what the spreadsheet did for financial analysts." The vision that led to the creation of LabVIEW more than 20 years ago continues to drive National Instruments to innovate and expand the frontiers of graphical programming. Jeff Kodosky, the father of LabVIEW, shares his thoughts on the future of the design platform and why engineers and scientists are just beginning to tap the potential of LabVIEW.
Graphical system design encompasses a vast range of applications - from automated testing to embedded control to green engineering - that combines strong core technologies and software tools accessible to engineers and scientists. Mike Santori and NI R&D engineers discuss and demonstrate new developments in graphical system design. Learn how these developments encompass key emerging technologies and help engineers and scientists more easily use them in exciting new application areas.

What do you get when you combine imaginative minds with creative, hands-on projects and a fun way to learn? Millions of future engineers. Across the world, budding engineers of all ages are getting involved in technically challenging, socially relevant engineering and science projects from robotics to green engineering. Watch as student teams from primary, secondary, and higher education demonstrate how they are changing the world.
Entrepreneurship and innovation in green technologies is fundamentally difference from the same activities that occurred in the semiconductor, PC, and Internet sectors. "Green entrepreneurship" typically focuses on revolutionizing brownfield industries such as energy and transportation that have incumbent competitors, deep-rooted business relationships, and government regulation. Discover the considerations for green entrepreneurship, and learn how to develop effective, sustainable solutions that can bring real change.
