The main objectives are: - to bring together and foster cooperation between different experts in the space data handling, processing, and components fields. - to discuss architecture / reference design / component development / performance of current and future data handling - processing hardware for space. - to establish closer links between industry and international / national space agencies to enable further developments in these fields. The main technical topics are Satellite End-to-end data handling and processing architectures, Reference designs for platform, optical & RF payloads data systems, Buses, networks & protocols and OBDP (On-Board Data and Signal Processing). The conference will additionally aim to unite the communities involved in the SpaceWire & SpaceFibre conference (Dr. Felix Siegle, part of the Technical Committee) and OBDP - On-Board Data Processing (Mr. David Steenari, part of the Technical Committee).
