Random Ramblings on LabVIEW Design

This here article is a summary of the points we were trying to get across in our NIWeek 2017 presentation that you can see in the text. Enjoy!

I've seen a few presentations that describe coupling and cohesion incorrectly and thought it might be an idea to revisit some material I have used in training before. I think all the talk about asynchronous processes (actors) also allows us to discuss the metaphor as well.

In our book we used an factory analogy and it worked OK, I think this might be a better analogy going forward.

I sometimes feel part of the "establishment" and then I rebel against it. With regard to programming what do I view as the "establishment" and why do I think rebelling is a good thing?
