The MTCA workshop in Japan 2025 (MTCAWS in Japan 2025) will be held from August 27 to 29 at KEK. MTCA (MicroTCA) is an open-standard embedded computing platform. It is expected to be the new standard platform of the control systems for accelerators and physics. The goal of this workshop is to boost the application of MTCA in Japan by exchanging the information and experiences. The last Japanese workshop in 2021 was held in a virtual format under COVID-19 conditions. The workshop will be held in a hybrid format at KEK with virtual participation via Zoom, so that colleagues outside Japan can join the workshop, while we strongly encourage Japanese colleagues to attend in person. Participants from both of research institutes and industry are welcome. The workshop consists of tutorials and oral presentations. Industry exhibitions and a KEK tour are also planned.
The main topics of the workshop are:
+ Applications in research facilities
