Abstract :
Virtual Rackreg is an Integration and Automation technology that merges the multitude of Instrumentation, Automation, and Test Programming technologies into a single homogeneous framework, resulting in substantial time, risk, and cost reductions: 1) reduces System Integration time from Months of complex programming down to Minutes of simplified Drag & Drop; 2) reduces Test & Measurement Automation from Man-years of multi-disciplinary teams to Hours of Macro Recording by the application specific engineer
