Presentations
From Silicon to Software
Venue : Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, India.
Date : 22nd August 2009
Presentation : PDF
Talk covered basics of hardware design and how the systems are put together, and then moved on to insights on embedded operating systems. Details on what goes behind building an embedded system from the OS,to device drivers and application software was also discussed. The case under study was RTEMS - a real time executive for multiprocessor systems (previously missile systems), an operating system widely deployed on various space missions by both NASA and ESA.

Fedora Electronic Laboratory
Venue : Indian Institute of Science Auditorium, Bangalore, India.
Event : FOSS.IN 2008
Presentation : PDF
Abstract
Fedora Electronic Laboratory, an ambitious project, is designed to be a complete electronic laboratory setup with reliable open source design tools to keep engineers in pace with current technological race. This suits the Indian student community a lot, since the laboratories in the majority of the univs are ill equipped or there is no sufficient exposure to the outside world. The main purpose of this talk proposal is to get the student community use, contribute and have fun while hacking and learning. Also the talk will list down the various opportunities available in beginning to contribute and specific set of problem statements will be put forth for a group to sit and hack on later during the conference at the Fedora Work out.

Fedora, Fedora Electronic Lab, Free Software, Open Source
Free Software for Electronic Enthusiasts
Venue : Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, India
Event : Freed.in
Presentation : PDF
Abstract
Freedom and Openness in FOSS is just not restricted to Operating systems, office applications and programming tools. Its much beyond that and this presentation would open up the vast variety of packages and systems that are available for gaining a strong hold on Electronics. The discussion would involve features/demo of Electronic CAD Tools like Icarus Verilog, Alliance VHDl CAD Toolset, Flash burner softwares. To go further below the domain of software several start up kits for learning Operating systems, computer architecture, Digital Signal Processing and that run Free software shall be discussed.
The above presentation was given at a number of other institutes in India like NIT, Calicut; Manipal Inst. Of technology; Symbiosis, Pune for GNUnify event and more...
