to industry analyst Frost and Sullivan, the strong adoption of PXI systems is
expected to continue with a projected compounded annual growth rate of 17.6%
through 2014. The PXI Systems Alliance members look forward to assisting
scientists and engineers with using PXI for their measurement and automation
needs in 2009 and beyond.
