Quick Look Webinar Series  How OpenVPX Interoperability Issues Can Be Solved

Presented by: David Hinkle, Sr. FAE Embedded Computing Products, Elma Electronic Inc.

The first in our new series of short webinars, this focused and educational recording will give you an introductory overview to OpenVPX system components in order to better understand interoperability.

The OpenVPX architecture framework delineates clear interoperability points necessary for integrating module to module, module to backplane, and chassis. OpenVPX is evolving and incorporating new fabric, connector, and system technologies as new standards are defined.

VPX for Unmanned Systems:

Elma's topic: How OpenVPX Interoperability Issues Can Be Solved

NOW ON DEMAND

Keynote Speaker: Ray Alderman, Executive Director, VITA

Sponsors: Elma Electronic and Curtiss Wright Controls

VPX standards establish a new direction for the next revolution in embedded computing. The standards break out from the traditional connector scheme of VMEbus to merge the latest in connector and packaging technology with the latest in bus and serial switch fabric technology. VPX combines best-in-class technologies to assure a very long technology cycle similar to that of the original VMEbus solutions.

The OpenVPX architecture framework delineates clear interoperability points necessary for integrating module to module, module to backplane, and chassis. OpenVPX is evolving and incorporating new fabric, connector, and system technologies as new standards are defined.

AdvanceTCA Virtual Summit - ATCA in Uniform: Military Defense ApplicationsAdvancedTCA Virtual Summit: The Next 10 Years of Networks

Now an On-Demand webinar

Military Defense Applications - AdvancedTCA in Uniform

Moderator: Chris Ciufo, Editor in Chief, Open Systems Media

AdvancedTCA Virtual Summit - System Integration and Interoperability Track

Engineers from around the world are invited to learn about topics such as 40/100 Gpbs Apps, Network Acceleration, Wireless Apps, and Systems Integration. Each session will also include a special "Ask the Experts" panel for attendees to ask their questions and network with vendors.

Elma participated in the Integration segment; the focus was on the use of ATCA in Mil/Aero applications. To here the recorded presentation, click here to register and listen to this webinar.

Solving the Redundancy Riddle: a NEW MicroTCA Cost Issues E-cast

MicroTCA is becoming  the platform of choice for a wide range of embedded computing applications well beyond its initial telecom focus. While it supports sophisticated features including system management, redundancy, and high availability, many cost sensitive applications do not need all of

these features but benefit from MicroTCA's high level of performance. MicroTCA was architected as a very scalable architecture, and this E-Cast will discuss methods for reducing system cost for both MicroTCA and AdvancedTCA without compromising performance.

Density Driven Design : A Collaborative Approach to Migrating to a Faster, Multicore Environment Based on a COTS Platform

Presented by: ACT/Technico, Wind River, and Emerson Network Power
Moderator: Chris Ciufo

The goal:
The goal of next-generation designs is to achieve better performance in a smaller footprint using less power, while maintaining a level of backward compatibility.

What you will learn:
In this webinar, you’ll learn how to disentangle all the information out there; Emerson Network Power will show how new multicore processor boards differ from the uniprocessors, using as an example the newest multicore Power Architecture VME processor board. Wind River Systems will discuss how taking advantage of multicore environments with SMP (symmetric multiprocessing) or AMP (asymmetric multiprocessing) capabilities can significantly reduce the scope and complexity of multicore device software development, while taking advantage of the performance benefits of multicore processors.

Sub-system design challenges are increased even further when applying I/O interconnect schemes, storage considerations, and network connectivity. ACT/Technico will show you how you can take advantage of using off the shelf COTS hardware from multiple vendors to design a platform tailored to your project or design requirements. Specific attention will be given to BSPs and driver support. Environmental factors will also be examined and how they affect product selection.
