Presentation of SiLA’s achievements at MipTec Luncheon 2010

With more than 70 attendees also this year’s SiLA MipTec Luncheon was completely booked. Besides presentations about SiLA’s visions and mission, an overview about product developments, implementations and integration projects supporting the SiLA Device Control and Data Interface Standard (DCDIS) was provided by speakers of different member companies. The luncheon closed with an overview about current standards development projects such as Labware Specification, Data Capture, Imaging Data Interface, and Remote Service&Monitoring. SiLA partners presented live demos of their implementations and products (product informations will be added to this website soon). The feedback received from attendees during luncheon talks was very positive and encouraging !
