Actors are a powerful tool when creating large, highly parallelized, scalable systems in LabVIEW, but the framework takes some effort to conceptualize and therefore takes some time to learn. This series of articles will walk you through all of the major concepts in the Actor Framework world and get you to a point where you can start building and using Actor Framework applications.
Fun with the Actor Framework: PUB/SUB - by Jon McBee, LabVIEW Craftsmen Blog
Communication between Actors is meant to be done by traversing the Actor tree. Assuming we decide not to pass message enqueuers around to all Actors in the tree, we will end up with a lot of message classes and a lot of message routing. The extra messages and routing, however, buys us robustness as Actor E has no way of knowing if Actor C currently exists. But what if we could bypass the tree for certain types of messages in a way that allowed us to decouple our actors from each other...
"Actor Framework is not as hard as you think and here is why…" - by Quentin "Q" Alldredge, Q Software Innovations, LLC
If you are familiar with the Queued Message Handler (QMH) Design Pattern and Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) then you already know everything you need to start with Actor Framework. The purpose of this article is to show the parts of the Actor Framework that are comparable to the QMH Design Pattern and provide a step-by-step procedure for converting a QMH project to an Actor Framework project.
