ARM Community: Breadth of ARM Ecosystem Demonstrated at Software and Systems Design Day - ARM Community

After a successful Chip Design Day at ARM TechCon, the Software and Systems Design focus was packed with overflowing crowds, ARM and ARM Connected Community Partner exhibits and engaging technical sessions. Below are a diverse set up video interviews that demonstrate the breadth of activities that the ARM ecosystem engages in.

Katie Morgan chatted with Brian Carlson of Texas Instruments on the continued success of the OMAP 4 and what we have to look forward to with OMAP 5.



Andrew Frame interviewed Bob Baughman about Calxeda about what they stand for and how they are stepping up to the challenges of entering the server market with ARM based solutions.



Katie Morgan also spoke with Dennis Brophy on the latest collaborations Mentor Graphics has had with ARM in the past year including bringing hardware and software designers together and their involvement in the ACE protocol.



We’ve been posting regular tweets about the events that have been taking place all day – check out the @ARMTechCon feed and keep an eye out for more news on Thursday.

The focus of the conference Thursday is software and system design. Thursday starts with two more keynotes: Mike Muller – CTO of ARM, who will discuss 2020 in 26 Easy Steps and Ole Lund Hansen – Head, Global Compact Lead, United Nations who will share his vision for Innovating for a Brighter Future.
