Business pressures for efficiencies are driving convergence in the industrial space. Put simply, industrial IP convergence implies the conjoining of differing types of traffic such as Control, Voice, Video, Data and Security over the same network based on the Internet Protocol (IP). Enterprise convergence lowers the total cost of ownership of maintaining disparate networks and brings the management of functionalities firmly within the IT department’s remit.
The seminar will take place in three locations: AMP Technology Centre in Sheffield on 9th November 2010, Brunel University (West London) on 11th November 2010, and University of Warwick on 16th November 2010.
The aim of the seminar is to provide production and IT directors and managers with the most up-to-date information, tools, trends, and strategies for addressing industrial IP convergence issues in a variety of industries, allowing them to plan for the future development of their production environment. The seminar will feature a range of sessions addressing topics such as:
Network management
