AB Open is proud to confirm its sponsorship of ORConf 2018, the open-source digital design conference, to be held this year at the Gdansk University of Technology in Poland.
Officially announced by the Free and Open Source Silicon (FOSSi) Foundation today, AB Open’s sponsorship follows our commitment in the fields of free and open source software, hardware, and – thanks to projects including RISC-V, which have begun to enter their maturity with off-the-shelf product launches – silicon.
This year’s ORConf is to be held from the 21st to the 23rd of September at the Gdansk University of Technology, Poland, with a detailed schedule now available from the official website and covering topics from the RISC-V ecosystem to the Project Trellis Lattice ECP5 bitstream documentation efforts, along with a talk from Wilson Snyder on the release of the multi-threaded Verilator 4.0 Verilog simulator.
Those interested in the topics of previous years’ ORConfs should view the Open Source Digital Design Insights (OSDDI) series, a selection of video interviews many of which were recording during ORConf events.
More information on ORConf itself is available from the official website.
