Friday, November 19 - The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Phoenix Section, Components, Packaging & Manufacturing Technology Society Chapter & Waves & Devices Chapter present an all-day workshop on Emerging Device & Packaging Technologies: Sense, Compute & Communicate. From 7 AM - 5 PM at Arizona State University in Tempe, at the Memorial Union's Arizona Room. The combination of technologies required to address societal grand challenges in areas such as energy, health and security, necessitates the creation of systems that have far-reaching abilities to sense, compute and communicate. Such systems vary in complexity from basic home networks to much more sophisticated remote health, security monitoring and satellite systems, and can involve fields as diverse as biochemical sensing, ad-hoc networks, low-power/high-performance computing and planetary surface science. This year's one-day workshop will focus on the "sense, compute and communicate" topic and will pull together experts from industry, academia, research labs and consortia to share their vision of technical challenges and opportunities in these areas. A poster session will be featured on the broader workshop topic of emerging device and packaging technologies and select vendors will exhibit products and services related to all aspects of the supply chain for design and manufacturing. For more information, contact Vasu Atluri at mailto:vpatluri@iee.org or Steve Rockwell at mailto:steve.rockwell@ieee.org or visit the website at http://www.acteva.com/go/ieeephxsecworkshop2010.
