We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "PCI Express", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Basestation processors sport 16 virtual CPUs from Raza Microelectronics, which we summarised at the time by saying "First multicore multithreaded processor with integrated support for Serial RapidIO interface as well as for IEEE1588 precision timing protocol controller". The same day, we featured the news release Speedy samplers connect via PCI Express from Strategic Test: "Advanced features include options for dual-timebase sampling, synchronous digital inputs, asynchronous digital I/O and the possibility to synchronise up to 4336 channels".
 
In February 2008, we covered the news from Amplicon concerning its ExpressBox41U and ExpressBox7 - take a look at PCI expansion systems allow easy upgrades which says: "PCI Express to PCI Express expansion rackmount systems provide a simple way of expanding the available PCI Express (PCIe) slots of computers, workstations and servers".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Emerson Network Power Embedded Computing, SBC preserves backwards compatability, as well as Waveform analyser handles spread-spectrum clocking from Agilent Technologies Europe, and Multicore processors aim for automotive multimedia from Renesas Technology Europe.
