| UK Embedded Systems and Electronics Design Conference |
The Device Developers’ Conference, a new annual event for engineers and designers involved in the development of intelligent systems and devices, will take place at Bristol, Cambridge and Manchester on the 14th, 16th and 22nd May respectively.
This year’s event will feature informative half-day workshops, presentations introducing leading edge concepts and technologies and a vendor exhibition where engineers can get up to date with the latest tools and technologies available for future development.
Sponsored by key industry tool and technology vendors, the Device Developers’ Conference is free to engineers and managers working in the technical sector.
“This event is shaping up nicely,” said Richard Blackburn, Event Organiser. “We have been very pleased with the level of industry support for this project, we are on target to deliver a very useful event. The workshops and presentations we have lined up should prove to be very informative and helpful for engineers in this field, and many engineers will value the chance to meet a broad range of vendors in a single space.”
A key feature of the Device Developers’ Conference is that it is a single day event, which takes place in three locations. This enables engineers to attend with the minimal of travel time and expense. Another key feature is the ½-day technology workshop schedule that enables engineers to receive hands-on training from industry experts. Workshop subjects include ‘device driver development’, ‘advanced debugging’ and ‘exploiting low cost, low power smart phone technology’.
The companies exhibiting and presenting at The UK Device Developers’ Conference include German debug tools company Lauterbach, UK computer board manufacturer Blue Chip Technology Ltd, embedded systems development consultants Pebble Bay, development tools distributor SDC Systems and RTOS company Wind River. It is anticipated that up to 30 vendors will be exhibiting to demonstrate and explain their latest tools and technology.
“We are very pleased to be supporting this event,” said Barry Lock, UK Manager of Lauterbach. ” I’m confident that this event will prove an ideal forum for the discussion of new technologies and industry trends, as well as being a chance to network and meet industry experts. I feel sure that many of the topics being discussed, and the workshops, will help ensure it’s an attractive and useful event for engineers in the UK and from abroad.”
The half-day workshops at this event will include ‘An Introduction to Advanced Debugging Techniques’, ‘An Introduction to Device Driver Development’ and ‘Getting to Grips with the MISRA 3 Standard’.
Presentation titles include ‘Managing The Commercial Use of Linux’, ‘Developing Reliable Embedded Software With a Defined Time Approach’ and ‘Developing Device Drivers for Embedded Systems’.
