FPGA Virtual Summit is here again

This year’s virtual summit will be held on June 23, 2011. I like virtual summits as they allow participants from all over the globe participate in discussions rather than limit them to a few local attendees. Granted, the timing is odd for India but people are known to work late nights to satisfy their bosses in the Valley. So, attending this is not too far fetched. For those interested, please visit for information. Click here for registration.

About InCSIghts:

InCSIghts is the annual CSI IT roundup and will be held this year on March 27, 2010. The event will showcase a broad range of topics that IT professionals and academicians shouldn’t miss.

This event will try to give audiences a sneak peek into technologies that will dominate the future and analyze their impact on IT professionals. It will also focus on issues relevant to industry needs today, both business and technical. InCSIghts is Pune’s premier annual event that delivers an informative and actionable perspective of the issues shaping our industry with a peek at the future of technology. This year, InCSIghts brings you some of the most respected names on Pune’s IT scene with a cuisine of thought-provoking items on the agenda.

We have planned four sessions this year – Technology, e-Governance, Computer Science Research and Future of Mobile Devices and Convergence. Here are details:

Future of Devices and Convergence:

A new breed of mobile devices that offer tremendous productivity boost to the average user is just around the corner. As we are just starting to get used to the ubiquity of constantly connected mobile smart phones, future mobile devices promise a significantly enhanced feature set over the existing ones. Devices such as the iPad from Apple, Kindle from Amazon or the Adam from Notion Ink are some examples that highlight this new trend.

These advances bring new challenges to the software development community which has hitherto been focused on programming for personal computers. It is quite obvious that the software developers must embrace new trends in order to survive and prosper. This panel discussion is the ideal setting to start the conversation between the hardware makers and the software developers, as the focus of the discussion will be on various technologies/platforms/form-factors that will be prevalent in newer devices. The attendees can expect a spirited discussion on the following topics:

1) Awareness of current and future technologies/platforms/form-factors

2) Consideration on power, usability, ubiquity which are not that important in PC programming

3) Programming platforms and programming tools

4) Marketing your software product

5) Considerations for building the hardware
