Dear DutLUG community,

I am excited to announce the presentations for our next DutLUG meeting in September.

Please note that all presentations will be in person, and we will not be recording or live streaming. Additionally, all presentations will be conducted in English.

Stay healthy and see you all soon!

1. Suresh Krishna - CLA Game Plan: Designing a Strategy Before the Exam

In this session, I’ll present my proposed approach for the Certified LabVIEW Architect exam, from architectural choices to planning and time management. The goal is to gather feedback, tips, and questions from the community before taking the exam. Let’s shape a solid strategy together!

2. Ralph Reijntjes - Learning about zlib deflate while building the implementation from scratch

Ever wondered how compression algorithms actually work? Let’s take a closer look at the zlib DEFLATE specification.
Discover how LZ77 and Huffman coding work together to form one of the most widely adopted compression algorithms globally. DEFLATE is integrated into countless systems and remains prevalent across industries today. All this, while building a fully functional implementation in LabVIEW (-:

Hi is there any slides or examples from this presentation?  I'm researching the topic myself and was interested in anything that could be shared.  Thanks.

Hello Hooovahh,

Please find attached the slides of that presentation.

Have a great 2026!

Thanks, it is a shame that no code was shared.  Still with the help from some AI I was able to implement the LZ77 and Huffman Decode function in pure G LabVIEW and posted it over on LAVA if anyone is interested.
