Disertación del profesor Vijay Narayanan en la FIUBA (16-jun, 15 hs)

[Mariano Garcia Inza]

Estimados,

El día viernes 16 de junio a las 15 hs contaremos con la presencia del profesor Vijaykrishnan Narayanan de la Universidad Estatal de Pensilvania. El profesor Vijaykrishnan es un destacado investigador en áreas de microelectrónica, tecnologías emergentes y computación. En el marco de su visita a la FIUBA nos ofrecerá una disertación sobre sus recientes investigaciones en el Aula L15 del primer piso, sede Av. Paseo Colón 850. Abajo copio más información al respecto.

La disertación será en idioma inglés.

Gracias y saludos,

Mariano.

Title: Advances in Ferroelectric devices for supporting data-intensive applications.
Abstract:  Ferroelectric-based devices and circuits are emerging as a key solution for supporting the storage and computing needs of data-abundant applications. Co-design across the stack from materials to architectures will be vital to addressing cross cutting challenges posed by the enormity of data that needs to be processed. This talk will highlight opportunities and challenges for ferroelectric electronics. Examples of such co-designed systems include using ferroelectric devices for machine learning, processing-in-memory fabrics, as Ising machines for solving computationally hard problems such as graph matching, and reconfigurable fabrics to enable hardware obfuscation. With discovery of ferroelectric properties in a new class of materials that can be potentially deposited at low temperatures and higher polarization, there is also significant progress towards design of true three dimensional ferroelectric platforms.
