 AdvancedTCA Summit
With the cooperation of CompactPCI and AdvancedTCA Systems Magazine and RTC Magazine, and the endorsement of PICMG, we are sponsoring a three-day summit on AdvancedTCA. The AdvancedTCA Summit program is designed to provide attendees with practical information on the current state of the Advanced Telecommunications Computing Architecture (AdvancedTCA), the emerging standard platform for telecommunications equipment. Summit themes will include: creating standard-based telecom equipment, reducing equipment cost and development time, making equipment more flexible and more maintainable.

AdvancedTCA Virtual Summit
June 24, 2010
The event has the bredth of a conference but without any travel cost or time and with complete freedom to enter or leave at any time. The Virtual Summit is thus a new approach, falling between a single webinar and a full-fledged conference.

 FPGA Virtual Summit
FPGA Virtual Summit consists of five DSP/FPGA webcasts ina single day, covering key topics for today's design engineers. Attendees can participate from their desktops, loggin-in throughout the day for their relevant topics. Each webcast will wrap up with an "Ask the Experts" panel for engineers to ask their questions and network with vendors. There are only three participants per webcast.
Also, the final session of the day is the keynote event entitled the "Executive Round Table." Executives from the leading FPGA vendors will be discussing the "Future of FPGA" in a Q&A type session moderated by Chris Ciufo and Don Dingee. There are only four participants in the Round Table webcast.
The event has the bredth of a conference but without any travel cost or time and with complete freedom to enter or leave at any time. The Virtual Summit is thus a new approach, falling between a single webinar and a full-fledged conference.

 Ethernet Technology Summit
Ethernet Technology Summit focuses on the latest advances in Ethernet technology, particularly the new specifications for 40/100 GbE, Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), and Energy-Efficient Ethernet. It features the latest information on these advances from the experts who are developing the specifications and designing the initial products for them. It is thus essential for those who are deciding whether to use the new specifications or design products for them or are in the initial stages of product design.

 Netbook Summmit
Netbook Summit focuses on netbooks, streamlined mobile devices designed for the Internet and allowing users to stay connected on the go. They are optimized for low weight and low cost rather than computing power. They are typically less expensive and less powerful than traditional notebooks or desktops. Netbooks are small, thin, lightweight and energy efficient portable computers that have experienced explosive growth among consumers, students, and even business users looking for an easy to use, mobile, and cost effective alternative to a full size notebook computer. They are also ideal for uses in education, data collection, services, law enforcement, and medical and retail applications.

 Flash Memory Summit
Flash Memory Summit focuses on flash memory, a type of constantly powered nonvolatile memory that can be erased and rewritten in units called blocks. Flash is rugged, small, low-cost, low-power, and fast; it allows for compact systems with simple startup and low power consumption. It is ideal for consumer applications such as cellphones, digital cameras, and music players, and is also useful in computers, communications systems, and military/defense applications. It can replace hard disks for storage in applications where its higher cost is balanced by its smaller size, greater ruggedness, and lower power consumption.

 Server Design Summit
The Server Design Summit focuses on the design of next-generation servers ranging from simple blades to powerful high-end systems. Servers have the primary function of managing data transfers rather than actual computing. They generally operate in large racks in data centers. Problems include load balancing, power dissipation, consolidation, and expansion. Current issues include designing for virtualization and cloud computing, reducing power consumption, managing large numbers of servers (server farms), increasing throughput and performance, and bundling of servers, interfaces, and software into unified architectures. Other issues include the use of advanced interfaces and storage devices such as 10/40/100GbE, InfiniBand, NAS, SAN, and solid state drives.
