Symposium: New Frontiers in Memory Technology

"Memory technology is now the major force behind the semiconductor industry, driven by the exponential growth of consumer applications," said Philippe Jansen, Chairman, IEEE SCV-EDS. "But there are still major hurdles to overcome, including the need to re-engineer Flash and DRAM cell structures to extend scaling through the next decade. This event provides an opportunity for attendees to hear about these innovations from leading technologists and researchers, while also providing an opportunity for discussion and sharing of insights."

Presenters: Freescale, Hynix, IBM, IMEC, Intel, Ovonyx, SanDisk, Stanford, Toshiba and Applied Materials
