We have heard the problem as stated convincingly by Al Gore -- our planet is in a state of crisis and we have a collective responsibility to solve the problems of climate change before it is too late. Now comes the solution -- the fact that we have a collective responsibility to solve the problem of climate change before the problem gets out of hand and humanity, as a species, is threatened with extinction.
The Embedded Systems Conference is part of the solution. There, people will share the latest in research and technologies to solve the problem of climate change.
ESC claims to be the largest electronic systems design event in North America, with a large West Coast event held each spring, and a smaller East Coast event in the fall. The event typically serves as a venue for hundreds of new product and technology demonstrations and announcements -- in areas of embedded software, hardware, development tools, and support services -- as well as an extensive set of high quality technical sessions and tutorials.
The theme of ESC West, 2007, will be "The Power of Brain Power," with a focus on "what today's system architects, design engineers, engineering students and industry leaders are doing to address some of the serious problems facing both the U.S. and the world, from declining technical education in the U.S. to global environmental impact," organizers say. In addition to Gore's keynote address, event highlights will include a "live teardown" of a hybrid vehicle, a "disruption zone" highlighting leading start-ups, and "get to the point" panel discussions on emergent technology trends.
