IDT RapidIO training

14 Jul 2015, 09:30 → 16 Jul 2015, 17:30 Europe/Zurich

513/R-070 - Openlab Space (CERN)

RapidIO (http://rapidio.org/) technology is a package-switched high-performance fabric, which has been under active development since 1997. The technology is used in all 4G/LTE basestations worldwide. RapidIO is often used in embedded systems that require high reliability, low latency and deterministic operations but there may now be an opportunity to take the same value proposition to more mainstream data processing, which is the underlying motivation for this Project.

This training is part of the IDT - CERN Openlab collaboration.

Please note that the meeting room for the second day (Wednesday) is 600 R-002
