INTELLIGENT VIRTUAL CONTROLS*
Abstract: Intelligent virtual control (IVC) is an intelligent measurement instrument unit with the function of actual measurement instruments, and the unit can be used as basic building block for a variety of more complex virtual measurement instruments on a PC. IVC is a further advancement from virtual instrument (VI), and it fuses the function modules and the controls modules so that the relationship between the functions and controls of an instrument is imbedded in one or more units. The design, implementation and optimization methods of IVCs are introduced. The computer software representation of IVCs is discussed. An example of an actual VI constructed with the building blocks of IVCs is given.
