Here is an interesting, free talk open to all interested.  I've been to several 
of their presentations in the past and they were always of great technical 
value. 
 
Please do NOT reply to me, thanks.  Either follow instructions on RSVP/website 
or for more specific questions not answered there, please contact John or Paul 
(cc'd here).

Recent Advances and Challenges in High-Speed Interconnect Protocols 









By 
Dr. Raghu Sastry , Director R&D,   <http://www.agilent.com/> Agilent 
Technologies,  






Thursday June 5, 2003 at 5:30 PM






VENUE: 
 <http://www.thehca.org/directions.html#venue> Agilent Technologies, 5301 
Stevens Creek Blvd., Bldg.50, Santa Clara, CA.



ABSTRACT:
Several interconnect protocols, such as Infiniband and RapidIO, have been 
standardized within the past few years. They support chip-chip, board-board and 
chassis-chassis interconnects via serial multi-gigabit interfaces. Applications 
for these protocols include serial backplanes, server clustering, and I/O 
aggregation to name a few. This presentation will provide an overview of the 
key features of these protocols. Implementation examples will be discussed that 
highlight some of the associated technical challenges. 

BIOGRAPHY:

Institute of Technology, Madras, India, and a Ph.D. in computer science from 
the University of South Florida, Tampa.
At Agilent, he is responsible for new technology and products related to high 
performance interconnect solutions for storage, telecom, and server 
applications. Prior to joining Agilent, he worked at RedSwitch, Inc. and HAL 
Computer Systems, Inc. on the design and implementation of silicon for several 
standard and proprietary interconnects.
Raghu, an IEEE Senior Member, has more than 20 publications in international 
journals and conference proceedings. He is an Associate Editor for the IEEE 
Transactions on VLSI systems, and has been awarded 7 patents.
