NGIO architecture takes shape

The NGIO forum said today that it is holding multiple sessions on system challenges and technology of the input/output (IO) architecture. A full day tutorial is being hosted next Monday at the Santa Clara convention centre, with Jon Haas, manager of Intel's enterprise server group, moderating the panels. Hewlett Packard, Sun Labs, Synopsys and Finisar will also make contributions. And next Wednesday, Tim Witham, an Intel engineer, will present a white paper on Internet I/O. We hope we'll have a chance to see the papers. If so, we'll report on it. ®
