Hello This just bounced into our enquiries mail box. Thought I'd better forward it to the list. I've had to remove the attachments and replace them with an Open Office document. Couldn't convert it to LaTeX or Postscript without losing the tables.. ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: Linux Seminar Date: Fri, 2 Aug 2002 14:52:15 +0100 From: xxxxx [at] feabhas.com We are holding an Embedded Linux Seminar day for Non Linux Developers at the Madjeski Stadium, Reading, Berkshire on Thursday 31st October 02. For many developers of real-time embedded systems there still is a great amount of confusion as to what exactly embedded Linux really is, and more importantly what it is not. The intent of the day is to openly position Linux as a target environment for real-time embedded applications, and to present its shortcomings (e.g. Linux cannot run on an 8051 or PIC, you cannot sensibly develop for Linux on a Windows platform). The day will comprise of various presentations and papers covering memory and processor requirements; what "real-time" Linux is and is not; what "small" Linux really means combined with a tabletop exhibition of various embedded Linux environments and supporting tools. Please see attached our proposed agenda. As you are already established in the Linux market, here is your chance to make your mark whether it be presenting one of the sessions or exhibiting with one of the tabletop stands. It is important, however, that (a) these are not a "pure" sales pitch, and (b) they can be present in a fair and open manor (i.e. Linux is not the solution to every problem). There is a small charge of £250.00 for tabletops which are limited in number. If presenting a session there is no charge involved and if you would like to just come along and listen, the charge for the day is just £65.00 and includes lunch and refreshments throughout. We anticipate attendance in excess of 150 delegates and hope that the day will give an open, honest and unbiased view of where Embedded Linux is today, compared to existing Real-Time Operating System development (e.g. VxWorks, OSE, Nucleus, etc.). If you are interested in any elements mentioned please contact me, details below. If the seminar is not applicable to you, we would appreciate you passing these details onto other members of your group who may be interested. Thank you for your time.
