Cypress CTO to Discuss Network Search Technology Trends and System-Level Design Issues At Network Systems Design Conference.SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Industry Veteran Mark Ross Will Participate in CTO (Chief Technical Officer) The executive responsible for the technical direction of an organization. See CIO and salary survey. Roundtable on October 19 in San Jose Cypress Semiconductor Corp. (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange :CY) today announced that its chief technical officer, Mark Ross, will participate in the Network System Design Conference's (NSDC's) CTO Roundtable, to be held at the Parkside Hall in San Jose, Calif., on Tuesday, October 19 at 6:00 p.m. Ross will address key network search engine (NSE NSE - Network Software Environment: a proprietary CASE framework from Sun Microsystems. ) trends and design issues, ranging from standards compliance to hardware design and software programmability. He will also discuss the implications of Cypress's industry-leading 90-nm process technology on NSE design. A graduate of Stanford University with a masters degree in Electrical Engineering, Ross is a recognized NSE pioneer who led the development and use of ternary (programming) ternary - A description of an operator taking three arguments. The only common example is C's ?: operator which is used in the form "CONDITION ? EXP1 : EXP2" and returns EXP1 if CONDITION is true else EXP2. content-addressable memory (TCAMs) in communications systems. He is credited with developing the world's first Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) network interface controller (NIC (1) (Network Interface Card) See network adapter. See also InterNIC. (2) (New Internet Computer) An earlier Linux-based computer from The New Internet Computer Company (NICC), Palo Alto, CA. ) and single-chip multi-channel GbE switch. Prior to joining Cypress, Ross led the development of communications and computation products that contributed more than $1 billion in revenue at both Cisco Systems and Sun Microsystems. Cypress is the only company to offer both TCAM-based NSEs as well as algorithmic NSEs. This combination of search technologies provides customers a cost-optimized search solution with the scalability to address current and future performance requirements. Cypress also enables faster time-to-market and reduced development costs with its Cynapse(TM) Software Platform. Moderated by Principal Analyst Linley Gwennap of The Linley Group, the NSDC NSDC National Staff Development Council (Oxford, Ohio) NSDC National Square Dance Convention NSDC Network Systems Design Conference (San Jose, California) NSDC Nunavut Social Development Council panel discussion will also include Harish Devanagondi from Greenfield Networks, Russell Dietz from Hifn, Dave Fotland from Ubicom and Dave Mothersole from Motorola's semiconductor spinoff Freescale.
