Abstract
The digital transformation continues to gain momentum and is changing the shape of business, industry and consumers around the world. This transformation is characterized by continued strong demand for compute at all points in the network – at the core, the edge, and at the endpoints. Data continues to grow at an exponential rate and not only drives the compute requirements, but also requires efficient solutions for movement and storage of data that is critical for overall performance. From device to cloud, new applications and use cases are continuously emerging. In addition to continued dimensional, materials and device scaling, Moore’s Law will evolve to meet the challenges and complexity of heterogeneous 3D integration, and novel architecture integration schemes that will continue to grow. This transformation demands that we adapt our design thinking and move from monolithic self-contained systems to a data/information approach where the system solutions encompasses all the elements needed to convert data to information. These integrated but heterogeneous application-specific design solutions will require different approaches to device scaling to be successful.
