jgcode Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 As part of working for an NI Alliance member I attended an NI presentation today. I was introduced to a new catch-phrase that I had not heard before - Instrumentation 2.0. "Instrumentation 2.0 is a software based approach to instrumentation empowering engineers to create user-defined results from raw measurement data" This was the first time I had heard the term mentioned and used to define and document an evolutionary step in the industry - just like Web 2.0. On further research it seems that this was mentioned all the way back in 2007. But I can't find a lot on it. Have you heard it used? Is it an Industry or National Instruments only term? Did it not catch-on? A few interesting reads here and here. Quote Link to comment
Louis Manfredi Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 It just doesn't seem as catchy as "The software is the instrument." Best, Louis Quote Link to comment
jdunham Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 Well with Web 2.0 companies getting hundred-million-dollar investments, it's certainly worth the effort of a few blog postings and press releases to jump on the bandwagon. Quote Link to comment

AFAIK, "Instrumentation 2.0" is simply the test-centric description of http://www.viengineering.com/vista_solutions/configMgmt/default_eim.aspx' rel='nofollow' target="_blank">Engineering Information Management (EIM).
