NASHUA, N.H., 4 June. Industry experts from Curtiss-Wright Controls, Hybricon Corp., and Tracewell Systems are joining a panel discussion on the ability to manage heat and power in leading-edge electronic systems design during an informational Webcast presented by Military & Aerospace Electronics magazine at 3 p.m. eastern time June 5.
Ivan Straznicky, senior mechanical engineer from Curtiss-Wright Controls Embedded Computing; Robert Sullivan, vice president and corporate director of technology at Hybricon Corp., and Matt Tracewell, executive vice president of Tracewell Systems are joining James Robles, a senior fellow engineer at the Boeing Co., and Richard Jaenicke, director of technology integration at Mercury Computer Systems in a discussion of the latest solutions for improving power efficiency and for cooling chips and boards, as well as thermal issues in aging military platforms.

The Webcast, entitled "Keeping it Cool: Managing Thermals and Power," centers on current- and future-generation processors create escalating thermal demands on military designers.
Sponsors of the Webcast are Curtiss-Wright Controls Embedded Computing in Leesburg, Va., Mercury Computer Systems, and Tracewell Systems Inc. in Westerville, Ohio.
Boeing's Robles will look at the latest solutions for improving power efficiency and for cooling chips and boards, as well as thermal issues in aging military platforms.
Robles's presentation, "Aerospace Thermal Management Challenges and Solutions: A Boeing Perspective," will discuss how the aerospace thermal management challenge is driven by:
1) the user's inexhaustible demand for greater processing capability for Image Exploitation (IE) applications, such as automatic target recognition and moving target engagement, and for fast data communications on aircraft and spacecraft;
2) the move to more electric vehicles to reduce weight and power consumption by eliminating hydraulic actuation systems; and
3) the need for directed-energy weapons.
Following Robles will be presentations from Jaenicke of Mercury Computer Systems; Straznicky from Curtiss-Wright Controls Embedded Computing; Sullivan of Hybricon Corp.; and Tracewell of Tracewell Systems.
