Abstract
The paper presents a pipeline liquefied petroleum gas network (PLPGN) monitoring system based upon the virtual instrument architecture. Starting from the introduction of development requirements and environment for the monitoring system, the paper discusses its hardware configuration and software functionalities, in detail. Practical application has demonstrated that the virtual instrument-based structure is very effective and the obtained monitoring system is highly flexible.
