Navraj Nandra —
Networking, storage, industrial, and consumer electronics applications are avoiding slowest link limitations by moving to switched serial architectures.
Cost containment: EMC design for universal compatibility delivers savings
Neil Petraca —
EMR gaps can be avoided without resorting to the “perfect” EMI enclosure – a seamless thick steel ball with no seams.
MicroTCA at the Summit, AdvancedTCA beyond the CO
Joe Pavlat —
The simple life. How AdvancedTCA plans to embrace it for data center applications.
Network device configuration management software simplifies software, increases robustness
Curt Schwaderer —
What role will the Internet Engineering Task Force's NETCONF play in a standards-based ecosystem?
Design must-haves for your mission-critical system
Dr. Asif Naseem —
Learn from this real-life example why the continuous availability of mission-critical applications must be factored into system design from the get go.
Developers look to MicroTCA for new opportunities
Tony Romero, Eric Heikkila and Will Smith —
MicroTCA's benefits resonate with telecommunications and mil/aero.
Matchmaking: Data fabrics and applications in MicroTCA
Vollrath Dirksen —
MicroTCA opens the possibility of extending the life of older systems.
High energy, High Availability
Joe Pavlat —
Time to look beyond older, parallel bus based architectures with many single points of failure to meet the needs of future accelerators and detectors.
Software tuned for multi-core promises big gains in AdvancedTCA system performance
Curt Schwaderer —
What happens when networking and high availability software solutions come into multicore’s sphere of influence?
Testing FCoE storage protocols
Steve Looby —
As vendors vie with one another to put Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) solutions to work, developers would do well to assess these products carefully for their ability to reduce time to market and cut costs.
03AdvancedTCA excitement: Nuclear particle variety
Hermann Strass —
A large scientific research center focusing on photons and particle physics is using AdvancedMC and AdvancedTCA boards.
01White Paper: Switched Ethernet Latency Analysis
GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms, Inc. —
Despite its throughput advantages, the latency of Ethernet is unpredictable. In fact, this may be Ethernet’s key shortcoming. The goal of this paper is to discuss aspects that influence latency and how to analyze it.
01Show tunes
Joe Pavlat —
Topics in this Annual Resource Guide include a new thermal design tutorial series and an article outlining key signal integrity issues.
Cooling 400 W boards in AdvancedTCA (and other platforms)
David Wright —
As they say about age, 400 W is just a number. This thermal management tutorial series will formalize much of the wide amount of existing expertise in convection cooling in the belief that even 400 W should not be considered a ceiling.
In-flight entertainment: Designers get on board with COMs and CompactPCI
David Pursley and Christine Van De Graaf —
Working with an airplane's server-like, bandwidth-hungry environment so passengers can take high availability entertainment for granted.
Signal integrity in high-speed connectors – the need for more accurate channel simulation and characterization measurement
Markus Witte —
Connector design, simulation, measurement, and analysis must become even more precise, as large bit rate jumps pose a challenge to optimizing channel signal integrity.
White Paper: The Service Availability Forum and Open Specification Solutions: An Industry in Transition
Service Availability Forum —
Service Level Agreements are tough taskmasters, and the job isn't getting any easier. The Service Availability Forum is stepping up its effort to educate the communications and computing industries on how to develop applications that can achieve high service availability.
White Paper: MicroTCA - New Advances Provide New Opportunities for Equipment Developers
Performance Technologies —
New Advances Provide New Opportunities for Equipment Developers
PICMG's Interconnect Channel Characterization Committee -- bringing the embedded industry up to speed
Stuart Jamieson —
Assembling a high-performance team as 100 GbE comes into view
Choosing solid-state storage solutions for single board computers: Designer’s nightmare?
Paul Dinh —
At times it must seem that processors, chipsets, and solid-state storage devices are not just evolving, but shape shifting. And all three and more must be considered by designers seeking solid-state storage solutions.
The codec world widens
Jean-Marc Valin —
Emerging wideband codecs will bring on the next wave of voice quality improvements.
AdvancedMC and AdvancedTCA markets: What’s ahead and why?
Joe Pavlat —
AdvancedTCA volumes are ramping up, but what drivers affect volume the most?
Enabling multihost system architectures with PCI Express switches: Innovation in design through multiroot partitionable switch architecture
Matt Jones —
Multiroot system architectures are no longer the barrier they once were to PCI Express being adopted as the primary system interconnect.
04To keep oil pipelines flowing, embedded storage systems have to be tougher
Gary Drossel —
Avoiding the drawbacks of storage subsystems originally meant for consumer applications
01Designing CompactPCI into rugged applications
David Pursley —
A 6U CompactPCI/PICMG 2.16 architecture choice for a ground vehicle's navigation system adds reliability and reduces Total Cost of Ownership.
White Paper: Architecting the Integrated Platform
Jim Lawrence —
Architect from the get go knowing multiple technologies from multiple vendors must be integrated, and cut the time, cost, and effort of deploying integrated network equipment.
01Delivering high availability platforms in an open environment
John Fryer —
OpenSAF Foundation President John Fryer outlines efforts to create an open environment for high availability middleware.
What to expect for ruggedized MicroTCA enclosure platforms
Justin Moll and Eike Waltz —
MicroTCA has a role to play in both military and telco applications, and that means a one-size-fits-all cooling solution won't be the answer.
AdvancedTCA meets 10GBASE-KR
Doug Sandy —
The new PICMG committee focused on weaving KR, KX4, and KX fabrics into the existing AdvancedTCA Ethernet standard (PICMG 3.1) is making steady progress toward a release in the first part of 2009.
