  • Filed:
    Apr 30, 2012
  • Appl. No.:
    13/460437
  • Inventors:
    J. Adam Kemp - Austin TX, US
    Neil S. Feiereisel - Cedar Park TX, US
    Brent C. Schwan - Austin TX, US
  • International Classification:
    G06F 3/00
    G06F 13/00
    G06F 9/46
  • US Classification:
    719312
  • Abstract:
    A graphical program execution environment that facilitates communication between a producer program and a consumer program is disclosed. The producer program may store data in a memory block allocated by the producer program. A graphical program may communicate with the producer program to obtain a reference to the memory block. The graphical program may asynchronously pass the reference to the consumer program, e.g., may pass the reference without blocking or waiting while the consumer program accesses the data in the memory block. After the consumer program is finished accessing the data, the consumer program may asynchronously notify the graphical program execution environment to release the memory block. The graphical program execution environment may then notify the producer program that the block of memory is no longer in use so that the producer program can de-allocate or re-use the memory block.
  • Buffer Object For Performing Buffered Data Transfers In A Data Acquisition System

    view source
  • US Patent:
    60527439, Apr 18, 2000
  • Filed:
    Nov 12, 1997
  • Appl. No.:
    8/968221
  • Inventors:
    Brent C. Schwan - Austin TX
    Kyle Evans - Austin TX
  • Assignee:
    National Instruments Corporation - Austin TX
  • International Classification:
    G06F 1328
  • US Classification:
    710 23
  • Abstract:
    A buffer object for performing intelligent buffering functions in a data acquisition (DAQ) system. The buffer object stores information regarding data to be transferred and includes one or more iterators for performing burst transfers. When a DAQ user application generates a call to perform data transfer operations in the DAQ system, the driver level software creates or instantiates a buffer object. The buffer object includes data format information specifying a format of the data being transferred, including the size of the data, the number of samples per scan, and number of scans of the data. The driver level software also creates a foreground iterator which is executable to transfer data between a client portion of system memory and a buffer portion of system memory. The driver level software also creates a background iterator which is executable to transfer data between a buffer portion of system memory and the on-board memory comprised on the DAQ device. The foreground iterator and the background iterator execute in response to the DAQ user application to perform data transfers to/from the DAQ device.
