Disaster Recovery
Vishnu Pandey, Hewlett-Packard
In today's world businesses expect to be
able to access their valuable data 24/7.
Ensuring that this is possible involves
being able to formulate the best
recovery plan for the absolute worst
scenario. In this class you will learn
about the technologies currently
available to assist you in remaining
fully functional in the event of any
type of disaster. The class will start
with a basic overview of Storage Area
Networks (SANs) and will then go
in-depth into the actual architecting of
a fully-redundant solution that provides
the best protection for your data. |
Freescale - Technologies & Tools
John McLellan - Applications Engineering, University
Program, Freescale Semiconductor
Description:The session will provide an
overview of Freescale Semiconductor and
their broad portfolio of technologies,
innovative products, and services that
are offered into education and industry.
A demonstration of our latest learning
environments ― Student Learning Kits and
accompanying lab modules― geared for
educational institutions and hobbyists. |
RFID
Technology
Emily Sopensky - CEO, The IRIS Company
Kristin Hedger - Director Business Development & Govt
Affairs, Killdeer Mountain Manufacturing
Gene Fedors - Vice President, Education Programs, RFID
Technical Institute

applications for modern projects. |
SEI
Web-based training
Jim Wrubel - VTE Team Lead, Software Engineering
Institute
In 2004 the Software Engineering
Institute faced a challenge - How to
ensure that 500 U.S. Army Reservists
could take a 10 day technical course on
computer security while balancing their
part-time status and global
distribution. We developed the Virtual
Training environment to meet the
requirement and it is now used by nearly
100,000 users annually. Using a
combination of video recording of
classroom instruction, narrated
demonstrations of techniques, and hands
on training labs all deployable on
demand through a standard Web browser,
VTE brings high-fidelity classroom
training to students regardless of time
and place. This presentation will
describe the key technologies used in
VTE, demonstrate the application, and
offer lessons learned. |
