Overview:

Deep inside Eaton Corporation is a team of developers whose sole mission is to refine the test and measurement systems used by the company's Truck Group R&D team. This case study explains how these developers harnessed the performance of new multi-core Intel processors and the multithreaded architecture of National Instruments LabVIEW graphical programming software to quadruple the number of channels running through their systems and achieve real-time determinism. They got there using standard, off-the-shelf desktop systems, keeping power consumption, thermal output and - most importantly - costs, down. Eaton's move to Intel's multi-core processors also allowed them to put their system in a mobile platform so that testing can be done in the vehicle instead of in dynamometers for more accurate, efficient performance feedback.
