interconnection architecture for I/O devices and other boards inside a
computer. It is defined and updated by the PCI-SIG(R) industry standards
body, originally formed in 1992 as the Peripheral Component Interconnect
(PCI) special interest group (SIG). Agilent Technologies, a prominent
developer and provider of test equipment at all levels yet not a
competitor in the computer market, has played a key role in the
advancement of PCI Express as a high performance yet extremely reliable
interconnection scheme with very good interoperability among
different-vendor equipment.<br><br>This talk will provide the following: an overview of PCI Express; PCI
Express design and debugging challenges; Agilent tools for PCI Express
development (physical layer, signal integrity and protocol validation);
PCI Express electrical and protocol testing; and a live demo of testing
solutions.<b><br><br>Bio:</b>
Rick Eads, a senior program manager for PCI Express tools at Agilent
Technologies, serves as Agilent's PCI Express Technology lead. Since <a href="tel:2007" value="+9722007" target="_blank">2007</a>,
he has served on the board of directors of PCI-SIG. </div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br><p></p><p></p></div><br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Orna Agmon Ben-Yehuda.<br>
