I recently published the aforementioned article in Electronic Design titled Cooperate to Innovate. The premise is that we need to be creative, particularly in tough economic times, to preserve innovation. One techqnique is to cooperate along non-traditional lines. For example, I have been working for the last couple of years on a joint developement project with Tektronix to develop a best-in-class PXI Express digitizer. This project leverages Tektronix’s unique ASIC technology and high-bandwidth design experience and National Instruments’ experience in modular instruments, data streaming, and software. This collaboration will result in a product that neither company could effectively or economically develop alone.
