We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "CompactPCI",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Computer enclosures tolerate extreme environments from
Carlo Gavazzi Computing Solutions, which we summarised at the time by saying "Carlo Gavazzi Computing Solutions can ruggedise commercial-off the shelf (COTS) products such as servers, data storage units and mobile electronics".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Computer keeps cool iun small package from
Inova Computers: "Hercules industrial computer from Inova Computers comes in a small format yet can survive without fans or other forced-air cooling".
In November 2005, we covered the news from Adlink Technology
- take a look at New office focuses European efforts
which says: "Adlink Technology has opened a European office in Dusseldorf, Germany".
Take a look also at the news release from Kontron UK, CompactPCI convenience at a rack-mounted price,
as well as Embedded controller at the double from National Instruments,
and Power network monitor keeps watch on quality from LEM Instruments.
