By: Advantech Europe “We look forward to sharing our expertise in discussions and to the standards that will emerge,” says Carsten Rebmann, Technical Adviser. “We feel it important not just to focus on board standards, but also tackle topics like software or systems. Only then true product compatibility can be achieved.” Standards ensure greater security The important of substitutability giving companies security to plan ahead is shown by a look at the customers. New developments are often a strategic decision, in particular for small and medium-sized enterprises. If a new product can no longer be produced because a supplied part has been discontinued, that can have fatal repercussions for the company. Standards help then find an alternative and so save the product. Standards also mean that decisions are no longer based on technology, but that extra services play the crucial role. Initial workgroups already appointed The first two workgroups, in which Advantech will participate, have already been appointed. One will deal with the Qseven standard and the other with a further COM standard for ARM-based applications. The focus will be to formulate next-generation standards. Another special aspect is that the workgroups can be combined to address different issues, such as boards, software and the system level – Advantech has the major advantage here of operating at all levels and thus being able to generate value add across the products.
