Abstract :
This paper introduces a new and flexible Multifunction System. By using LabVIEW 2010 Graphical Programming and or VEE-Pro with the new class of Agilent USB Devices in this application, at the University Transylvania of Brasov was developed a Flexible Laboratory Instrumentation System (FLIS) for new nanostructurated materials. This development offers great benefits to university research laboratories which need flexible systems that can be configured easily, to match the testing needs. At the same time, this FLIS Measurement System can be remotely controlled using MIT´s iLab Shared Architecture and is providing a uniquely modern, Web-controlled collaborative platform in research and education.
