LabVIEW on the Apple gathering at this year's NIWeek 2007
Dear platform independent LabVIEW wireworkers,
I have posted a similar mail to info-labview and LAVA already and would like to do the same here as well:
As I have the chance to attend NIWeek in Austin I'm looking forward to meet many fellow wireworkers there again. I would also like to know if there are some of you working or planning to work with LabVIEW on the Apple-Macintosh (or Linux) platform who will be attending NIWeek2007 and interested in a small, informal get-together to exchange ideas, views and information about the types of applications we are involved in. It may also be a chance to spell out a list of demands/concerns/questions about the platform independent aspects of LabVIEW.
If you are interested or if you know somebody who potentially is, please send me a note offline to: with the subject line and I will inform you about the location and the time the gathering will take place. Alternatively you may respond to this thread.
Thank you for the interest. I'm looking forward to meet you in person

********Announcement: ''LabVIEW in Physics'' and ''LV on the Mac'' at NIWeek2007***********
Dear LabVIEW programmers attending NIWeek2007,
For those of you who would like to see something a bit different from the regular NI technology sessions I would like to announce a small off-the-tracks presentation:
How to LabVIEW in Physics Education
I will stage a short somewhat playful presentation which illustrates the ways we incorporated LabVIEW Virtual Instrumentation to perform real world demonstration experiments of physical phenomena. Strong arguments to promote graphical programming to interface with the real world will be given along with a few selected examples of didactical demonstration experiments in physics which should be instructive and fun too.
The presentation will start at 15:30 in Meeting Room 3 on Wednesday, Aug. 8.
Please mark the time in your agenda. The room may be found on this map:
http://www.austinconventioncenter.com/Planning/ACCMultiLevel.pdf
On the map, look at Level 1 North/South (at the bottom) and Meeting Room 3 is in yellow. There will be signs to help direct people to the room.
Right after this at 16:00 at the same location I would like to unite those wireworkers who prefer to work with LabVIEW on the Mac or Linux platforms with NI developers who produce hard- and software for those OSes.
The intention is to spend about 30 minutes on brainstorm platform independent aspects and concerns along the following lines:
1) What type of applications are we involved in?
2) Why is MacOSX a viable foundation for LabVIEW type interfacing with the real world specifically in science and research?
3) What types of hardware do we mostly use?
4) What kind of support do we demand from NI ? Is it Mac/linux specific? What are the roadblocks to NI in providing this?
5) What problems do we possibly have which are platform specific ?
6) What are priorities?
a) Hardware support including drivers, NIDAQmx, GPIB, Fieldpoint
b) Software support TEDS, TDMS, Hosting shared variables
c) Toolkits, IMAQ, Signal Analysis, PID
d) Realtime development
The ''LV on the Mac'' part should take about another 30 minutes until 16:30. However, we will have the room until 17:00 for personal informal talks thereafter.
I really hope to see as many of you fellow wireworkers as possible there (Specially for the second part at 16:00 !).
Please help to spread the message.
Regards and happy wireworks

Dear interested wireworkers,
I got complaints about the scheduled time of my presentation/brainstorming event on Wednesday August 8. It seems as if Michael Aivaliotis and Brian Powell will have regular sessions that everybody wants to go to at 3:30 pm. As for not taking the risk to finally stand alone and talk/present to just myself I decided to run two sets of the same thing.
So there will be an additional one earlier at the same location Meeting Room 3 (Level 1 North/South) :
30 minutes of ''How to LabVIEW in Physics Education'' right followed by 30 minutes of brainstorming sessions about LabVIEW support for Mac/Linux:
Once at 2:00-3:00 and a second time at 3:30-4:30
I hope this will motivate even more interested wireworkers to attend. The presentation will not be a typical technological session, it may rather resemble an intellectually challenging special effect.
Hope to see many of you at one or the other set.
