Abstract
Microelectronics has changed the world in incredible and wonderful ways. Smart devices are now taken for granted and permeate every aspect of our daily lives. But atoms are finite, and the glorious run we’ve had down Moore’s slope is ending. What is a new (or old) researcher in this area to do? This talk will explore this topic, framed in a world of increasingly sophisticated systems that largely hide the underlying implementation technology.
