Software Strategies for Leveraging VXS Technology
Switched fabrics have been around for several years now, but with the advent of platforms such as ATCA, MicroATCA, VXS and VPX, their use is set to be ubiquitous. No longer is the fabric connection an afterthought, shoehorned into an architecture that was never designed to support such throughput, but it is now an integral part of the architecture, allowing for interconnects that are balanced with compute power now available with...

VPX: VME For the 21st Century
The VMEbus architecture has served military embedded computing extraordinarily well since the VMEbus specification was first published in 1981. VMEbus brought industry standards to a computing world then dominated by proprietary architectures and operating systems, and was in the vanguard of the movement that saw the much more open computing environment of today. This paper looks at VPX, the latest VME standard and how it brings new levels...

New High-Performance VME Products Using Legacy Architecture
VXS and VPX standards are currently in the media’s spotlight as they include the latest in serial interconnects like Tundra's RapidIO Switches. In 2004, a new product was introduced that increased traditional VME bandwidth by eight times. VME320 or 2eSST offers complete backward compatibility allowing new VME320 cards to plug into legacy systems and whereever two or more of these cards connect to the backplane, speed increases...

VPX: the re-evolution of VME from Radstone
VPX: is it evolution for VME or a revolution? The answer is that it’s both. It’s an evolution because it maintains electrical and software compatibility with VME - but it’s a revolution because it introduces a brand new connector, capable of supporting the serial switched fabrics that are transforming the military applications of the future. It’s an evolution because VPX boards retain the familiar physical characteristics of VME boards...

Curtiss Wright VITE 46 Reference Library
The VITA 46 advanced module format is being developed within the framework of the VITA Standards Organization by the VITA 46 Working Group. The VITA 46 format is designed to support system configurations requiring extensive serial- switched fabric interconnection along with other high-speed serial technologies such as digital video, Serial ATA, and FPGA interconnects, etc. while at the same time offering compatibility with today’s highly...

VPX @ Wikipedia
VPX, formerly known as VITA 46, is a proposed ANSI standard that provides VMEbus-based systems with support for switched fabrics over a new high speed connector. Defined by the VITA (VME International Trade Association) working group (comprising major industry organizations such as Boeing, Curtiss Wright, GE Fanuc Embedded Systems, Mercury Computer Systems and Northrop Grumman), it has been designed specifically with defense applications in...
