Packaging, integration, architecture, and circuits are required with the explosion of new computing paradigms and technological advancements. We will cover the relentless push for Moore’s Law with current and future transistor technologies like Fin-FET and gate-all-around. We will cover different packaging technologies that enable high-performance computing solutions like the ones integrated into the AuroraExascale Supercomputer.

Circuit innovations are also needed to extract performance from the fundamental technology. We will explore near-memory computing solutions, security circuits for confidential, fault-free operation, and adaptive circuits for reliability and resiliency.
