The digital revolution has led to rapid growth in data acquisition, traffic and processing with increasing demands placed on energy consumption. IT products already consume more than 10% of the total electric power produced in the western world, making energy-efficient computing a key technology for the sustainable scaling of IT performance.
Nanoelectronics has emerged as an independent and interdisciplinary research field, integrating knowledge, concepts and techniques covering many different spatial and temporal scales. The aim of the 2015 Nanoelectronic Days workshop on “Green-IT” is to bring together leading scientists from around the world to discuss and debate recent achievements and future challenges in energy efficient computing.
The major topics covered by the workshop include both fundamental and applied research, focusing on energy-efficient information technology.
Sessions include
• nanoscale and steep slope devices
• nanoswitches based on oxides and phase change materials
• silicon based photonics and terahertz electronics
• zero power systems
• new architectures and computational concepts

Organization: Jülich Aachen Research Alliance – Fundamentals of Future Information Technology (JARA-FIT)
What alternatives are there to computers based on crystals of silicon or other semiconductors? What is – from a physical point of view – the smallest possible device that can be used to perform computational processes? Is there a minimum amount of energy required for floating point operations? What kind of state variables and algorithms can be used next to charges and John von Neumann architectures? These are the questions that concern the JARA-FIT researchers. The abbreviation „FIT“ stands for „Fundamentals of Future Information Technology“ and describes the tasks undertaken by the scientists in this section of JARA.

Event Flyer - Call for Papers You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
