Actor Framework Documents

The Actor Framework now ships as part of LabVIEW, as of LabVIEW 2012. This community supports that framework with backports to earlier LabVIEW versions, debugging tools, discussions of issues, and proposals for future enhancements of the framework. Please visit the READ THIS FIRST page.

The Actor Framework library was introduced by Stephen Loftus-Mercer and Allen Smith at NI Week 2010 to simplify the work of creating multiple independently running VIs that need to communicate with each other in a single application and to simplify creating complex state machine interactions in LabVIEW.
