Abstract :
Software packages for integrated data acquisition, analysis, display, and reporting are discussed. Highlights of new packages are faster data capture, extended computationally-intensive analyses, and better visualization. Major upgrades of a number of PC packages and the role of the workstation as the pacesetter of the marketplace are noted. Data acquisition for DSP boards and the increased use of icons are addressed. Embedded systems software for DSP and CASE tools are mentioned. A table of representative packages is included.<>
