New version of LabVIEW, LabVIEW 8.5, offers deterministic real-time multithreading, improved thread-safe I/O drivers and automatic scaling based on the total available number of processing cores to deliver performance gains. Other features include an extension of multicore performance for applications to real-time embedded systems with symmetric multiprocessing; multichannel filtering and PID control algorithms to reduce the FPGA resources required for high-performance machine-control systems; and a new state chart module to help engineers design and simulate event-based systems using notations based on the Unified Modeling Language standard
