There are two options for using LabVIEW Evaluation software in combination
with this book:
The LabVIEW Online Evaluation gives you the opportunity to explore the latest
version of LabVIEW at your convenience without downloading or installing
any software. (link to http://digital.ni.com/demo.nsf/websearch/

"I have always been impressed by Lab VIEW'S ease of use and friendly in-
terface. It is exciting to know that Lab VIEW is supporting signal processing
applications. LabVIEW Signal Processing makes your entry into Lab VIEW
even easier through its simple, illustrative examples and clear descriptions.
I highly recommend it for students in both academia and industry at all lev-
els as the ideal introduction to LabVIEW."
—Prof. Alan C. Bovik,
Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering,
University of Texas at Austin
"LabVIEW analysis provides built-in functionality that engineers and sci-
entists have not even considered possible...and LabVIEW Signal Processing
shows how to do it! The authors communicate a very complicated topic—
very effectively. LabVIEW Signal Processing is much easier to understand
than most books or texts that address these subjects. Value is added for the
reader in extensive theory that one can understand as well as in how to do
things in LabVIEW."
—Lisa K. Wells,
Author of Lab VIEW for Everyone
"Between the first and last page of LabVIEW Signal Processing, I found a
lot of material that improved my knowledge about topics such as signal the-
ory in general, filter design, statistics, and, most importantly, about real-
world applications. The examples in the real-world applications are given
by LabVIEW users, and they show how the Analysis Library can be used in
practical applications."
—Prof. Jing Zhou, Dean and Professor,
School of Civil Engineering and Architecture,
Dalian University of Technology, Dalian, P.R. China
"LabVIEW Signal Processing is not only a great refresher in signal process-
ing for engineers, but it also serves as an excellent tutorial for nontechnical
programmers who want to become more knowledgeable in the fundamen-
tals of signal processing and advanced analysis. It combines well-written
text with easy-to-follow examples to clearly explain traditionally difficult
concepts while demonstrating how to maximize the power of LabVIEW in
developing signal processing applications."
—Jim Baker,
Porter Technical Inc., Lexington Park, Maryland
"The theoretical concepts of signal processing are difficult for students and
professionals without formal engineering training to understand. Most
books on the subject are written in a style which makes it difficult to utilize
the concepts in everyday real situations. The authors of LabVIEW Signal
Processing have presented the material in a simple, straightforward way,
thus making it easy to understand and utilize the program VIs associated
with LabVIEW/BridgeVIEW.
"The book is well-organized and the background sections provide the
reader with the basic concepts and tools necessary for each chapter. The
unique aspects of signal processing, starting with the basics and building to
the more difficult, are clearly defined in each chapter. Care has been taken
to reinforce the reader's knowledge base by providing many program exam-
ples. The CD-ROM accompanying the book will be of great help to re-
searchers."
—Robert M. Wise, Research Supervisor,
University of Maryland, School of Medicine
"LabVIEW Signal Processing provides a good discussion of digital signal
processing with real world applications in LabVIEW that the reader can use
as a basis for future experimentation. The authors have carefully chosen a
lot of activities which show the reader how to use LabVIEW VIs for solving
interesting problems. This book reflects the real power of the graphical pro-
gramming paradigm for signal processing applications."
