State Machine Programming books

[Scott Smith]

I just finished the LabVIEW basics I & II.Are there any third party books available that can help explain and expand on building State machines and event driven programming. Or at least cover this material in detail. Thanks in advance.

The two Labview books I read and liked both talked about state machine architecture.

They are:

Labview style book by Peter Bloom

LabVIEW: Advanced Programming Techniques by Rick Bitter

I definitely agree on the Labview Style book. best LV book i read (and reread).

my experience with the other book was not enlightning, but definitely worth a look.

allow me to propose :

"A Software Engineering Approach to Labview", by Jon Conway and Steve Watts.
the book is really good, and expand on programming techniques and architecture in general. i think it is well written.

The print version has a quality problem of the figures tough (at least some editions), so i suggest you contact the authors directly or purchase the online version.
