The second IEEE International Memory Workshop (IMW) will be held at Shilla Hotel in Seoul, Korea from May 16th-19th, 2010. In response to the growing global interest in NVM & Memory technologies the previous NVSMW (Nonvolatile Semiconductor Memory Workshop) and ICMTD (International Conference on Memory Technology and Design) have merged together and meet annually in May. The workshop is sponsored by the IEEE Electron Devices Society.
The convergence scenario of consumer , computer and communications electronic systems are requiring an exponential growth of code and mainly data in all the electronic systems.
While in the past we could associate to a specific market segment a memory technology ( ex. Computer & DRAM, mobile communications & Flash NOR, Consumer DSC & Flash NAND), now more and more we are considering a memory system stacking different NVMs and xRAM memories ( and often uController to facilitate the interfacing and the managing of the overall memory) in order to fit the need of any “convergent ” application –wise electronic system. The memory system and all his implication in term of memory densities, technology performances, packaging, and interfacing become more and more of interest .
| |
In addition , the scaling scenario both in term of “ Moore’s law “, and “more than Moore” , identifying limitations and enhancements of memory technologies by technology nodes and by new concepts or materials , indicates clearly and strongly again the perspective of a memory system. |
| |
The IMW wants to answer to this need, widening the scope from Novolatile Memory technology and design , which have been successfully discussed in more than 30 years of NVSMW to the other Memory technologies and design , which were the focus of ICMTD , in the view of the memory system. |
The IMW is a unique forum for specialists in all aspects of memory ( non-volatile & volatile) microelectronics and people with different backgrounds who wish to gain a better understanding of the field. The morning and afternoon technical sessions are organized in a manner to provide ample time for informal exchanges amongst presenters and attendees. The evening panel discussions will address hot topics in the memory and memory system field. Papers are solicited in the aspects of semiconductor memory technology, including:
