CMP Media (NASDAQ: UNEWY) today announced its 13th annual Embedded Systems Conference (ESC) Boston (http://www.embedded.com/esc) to be held in the Hynes Convention Center, November 18-21, 2002. Featuring a robust technical program, ESC Boston provides a prime opportunity for design engineers, technical managers and developers to learn leading-edge techniques that address programming and real-time design challenges. Attendees will also have the opportunity to view and test the latest in embedded hardware and software technology products from leading companies including Analog Devices, Fujitsu, Wind River, Mentor Graphics, Microchip and QNX.
"As microprocessors become smaller, less expensive and more powerful, they are enabling embedded systems to provide new functionality in a wide variety of real-world products," said Lindsey Vereen, conference director. "As the promise of connected and secure embedded systems begins to be realized, embedded systems developers are facing a new set of design problems. The goal of ESC Boston is to deliver the most up-to-date program content that can be applied to these real-life design challenges by offering developers the latest insight into trends, tools and design methodologies in the industry."
More than 4,000 participants are expected to attend this year's conference, which will feature a dynamic keynote speaker, more than 150 exhibiting companies, 70 classes and tutorials, and three "shop talk" sessions.
