摘要： A system and method for performing more efficient hardware context switches in a computer-controlled instrumentation system including a computer system which controls a plurality of instruments. The instrumentation system includes a direct memory access transfer device which performs various data transfers between the computer system and the various instruments. The system also includes a plurality of processes executing in the computer system which operates through a common window to map cycles onto the instrumentation bus to the various instruments. Each process or thread executing on the CPU requires a specific context, and the DMA transfer device automatically configures itself to different contexts in parallel with operating system context changes. Each process includes corresponding context information stored in memory. When the operating system is invoked to switch in a new process on the CPU, the operating system writes the address of the context information to the DMA transfer device. The DMA transfer device reads the context from memory and automatically configures itself in parallel with context changes performed by the operating system.

摘要： A system and method for configuring an instrument to perform measurement functions, wherein the instrument includes a programmable hardware element. A graphical program is first created, wherein the graphical program implements a measurement function. The graphical program may include a front panel and a block diagram. The method then generates a hardware description based on at least a portion of the graphical program. The hardware description describes a hardware implementation of the at least a portion of the graphical program. The method then configures the programmable hardware element in the instrument utilizing the hardware description to produce a configured hardware element. The configured hardware element thus implements a hardware implementation of the at least a portion of the graphical program. The instrument then acquires a signal from an external source, and the programmable hardware element in the instrument executes to perform the measurement function on the signal. The front panel may be used by a user to control the instrument during the measurement.
