    Prerequisites
  • Experience of a digital bus like PCI or VME is recommanded
    
             
  Course Objectives
  • Packet switching benefits compared to shared busses are highlighted
  • The course details the operation of new busses and the consequences on system architecture
  • This workshop has been designed for project managers that intend to understand the operation of new buses without fully describing their protocol
  • Many references to exerciser providers and component manufacturers are done in order to explain not only the features of newe buses but also their ecosystem
  • MVD offers trainings covering in depth particular buses like PCI-X, PCI-Express, RapidIO, IEEE1394a/b, USB2.0, HyperTransport, VME Renaissance
