The organisers of InQuest said that they will hold a Platform 2000 conference on the 26th and 27th of January in San Jose. The conference focuses on technology initiatives, partitioning and integration strategies, bus standards, system architectures and market segments, said Bert McComas, one of the organisers of the conference. Last June, McComas brought together a number of third party chip companies across the board. He said that Platform 2000 will include more presentations from analysts and vendors, details on the double date rate (DDR) roadmap, information on chipsets, and updates on IO, microprocessors and developments in graphics.
