Classes, ASI Demos and Interactive Sessions with ASI Experts
WHAT: Advanced Switching Interconnect (ASI) tracks at Intel
Developer Forum (IDF)
WHO: An array of ASI SIG member companies
WHEN: September 7-9, 2004
WHERE: Moscone Center, San Francisco
DETAILS: These sessions at IDF will provide information and an
architectural overview on a myriad of ASI topics.
Participants will gain valuable insight regarding Advanced
Switching technology, implementations of ASI in various
applications, protocol interface specifications and its
relation to PCI, PCI Express and the ATCA backplane.
Attendees should also check out the ASI SIG Community,
which will include seven member booths, several demos and
a software simulation of ASI.

About ASI SIG The Advanced Switching Interconnect (1) To attach one device to another. (2) A physical port (plug, socket) or wireless port (transmitter, receiver) used to attach one device to another. (ASI SIG) is a non-profit collaborative trade organization tasked with developing and supporting a switched interconnect and data fabric interface specification for communications, storage and embedded Inserted into. See embedded system. equipment, termed Advanced Switching interconnect (ASI), based on the PCI Express A high-speed peripheral interconnect from Intel introduced in 2002. Note that although sometimes abbreviated "PCX," PCI Express is not the same as "PCI-X" (see PCI-SIG and PCI-X for comparison). As a result of the confusion, "PCI-E" or "PCIe" is the accepted abbreviation. architecture. The ASI SIG's board of directors and members, comprised of industry leading equipment manufacturers and semiconductor and tools vendors, has surpassed 50 members to date. In addition to ongoing technical development of the specification, these member companies help to define, develop and market ASI. Different membership levels provide differing levels of influence, involvement and responsibility. The overall tasks performed by the members of the SIG include establishing broad industry awareness, ongoing technical development and enabling rapid industry adoption through training programs, ecosystem development and interoperability The capability of two or more hardware devices or two or more software routines to work harmoniously together. For example, in an Ethernet network, display adapters, hubs, switches and routers from different vendors must conform to the Ethernet standard and interoperate with each other. and compliance testing.
