  • Publication number: 20170052920
    Abstract: Various computing systems may benefit from appropriate configuration and/or adaptation. For example, various computing systems operating in accordance with Open VPX may benefit from systems and methods for providing Open VPX profile configurators. An apparatus can include a first interface configured to connect to a backplane operable according to an open VPX specification, wherein the backplane has a first profile. The apparatus can also include a second interface configured to connect to a module operable according to the open VPX specification, wherein the module has a second profile. The apparatus can further include circuitry configured to permit communication between the first interface and the second interface according to the open VPX specification. The circuitry can be configurable to adapt the module to communicate with the backplane when the first profile does not match the second profile.
