OpenSAF Foundation President John Fryer outlines efforts to create an open environment for high availability middleware.

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.

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.

Christopher Gobok —

Learn about options other than the traditional approach to high voltage current and voltage monitoring implementations.

Uwe Tews and Peter Zimmermann —

Uwe and Peter address cost containment, development time, and mezzanine characteristics for developers looking to make the most successful MicroTCA I/O decisions.

Didier Irlande —

Industrial, medical, and other applications can employ virtualization to take advantage of MicroTCA systems and migrate software to new multicore architectures such as the Intel Core Microarchitecture.

Curt Schwaderer —

Understanding and evaluating much higher level metrics is crucial for multi-service networks.

Hermann Strass —

Along with a redesigned data acquisition system, the company TechniScan Medical Systems (TMS) relied on the features a CompactPCI board incorporated, including hot swap and Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI).

Stuart Jamieson —

I n order to address diverse markets, the MicroTCA the air-cooled specification must take on extra functionality

Dr. Asif Naseem —

The next generation of enhanced specifications from the Service Availability Forum (SA Forum) wil help hardware platform suppliers – tackle the challenge of delivering fully integrated, tested, application-ready systems.

Tony Romero —

Tony reminds us of the objectives aimed for during PICMG’s development of the Advanced Mezzanine Card (AdvancedMC) specification and notes that specification’s place in endeavors including Long Term Evolution (LTE) and WiMAX.

Venkataraman Prasannan —

AdvancedMCs provide an effective means to implement standards-based modular entities, but they might not be a solution for everything. Determining the right fit requires an understanding of thermals, connectivity, usage models, and functional modularity.

Joe Pavlat —

AdvancedTCA, MicroTCA, and AdvancedMCs are coming into their own.
