Summary: | International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 27-30, 1997 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada === There is a continuing need in the aerospace industry for lower cost and more maintainable
telemetry data processing systems that can deliver a high level of performance. While
systems based on the Intel family of x86 processors and Microsoft operating systems have
seen increasing use in lower performance and portable applications, UNIX/VME based
systems have been necessary to achieve required performance in higher end, multi-stream
applications.
Recent developments in the computer industry now promise lower cost alternative to these
systems. With currently available technology, it is now possible to provide a powerful
distributed processor architecture based entirely on commercial products. The system
takes advantage of the latest of Intel Pentium processors, the PCI bus, 100BaseT Fast
Ethernet, Microsoft Windows NT, ActiveX technology and NT servers. The architecture
offers both current and future cost advantages for test facilities which must support a
diverse set of requirements and which must maintain and support systems for many years. |
