During a packed one day event, presenters from academia and industry examined progress and opportunities to leverage OpenPOWER technology. The workshop’s primary goals, say organizers, were to facilitate networking and improve technical knowledge of ADG members on relevant OpenPOWER. It also focused on creating a platform for commercial OpenPOWER members to explore opportunities for collaborating with ADG members.

OpenPOWER, of course, is in large measure the IBM-driven effort where one can develop a complete secured open hardware. As summarized by Dr Sameer Shende, _“Member companies are enabled to customize POWER processors and system platforms for optimization and innovation for their business needs. These innovations include development of custom systems and processor for special super computers, or advanced hardware technology exploitation.”_
