Abacus or Comfire

[Tiger3D]

Are there any valuable advantages with Abacus over other similar products like Simulink or Labview?

[NIquist]

They're not really similar.  LabVIEW is a programming language that could be used to create simulation or modelling applications (though I wouldn't recommend it).  Other than that it looks like apples and oranges to me.

Really? May be we're talking two different things! Isn't Abacus a graphical software where you connect blocks  on schematics drawing. And then these schematics (they operate like a program) are sent to controls or analog I/Os.

I am hoping someone with both Labview and Abacus experience can reply to my note. But thanks anyway.

I've never heard of either Abacus or Comfire.  Please post some links to some websites describing them so we know what you are talking about.

I know what Simulink is and I thought Abacus was a software company that makes modeling tools.  In any case, if YOU know what they are, why not look at the 'What is LabVIEW' page and make your own decision?
