Five Seismic Shifts That Will Define The Future of Semiconductors and ICT
Smart Sensing The Analog Data Deluge
Fundamental breakthroughs in analog hardware are required to generate smarter world-machine interfaces that can sense, perceive, and reason.
Annual investment need: $600M throughout this decade to pursue analog-to-information compression/reduction with a practical compression/reduction ratio of 105:1 for practical use of information more analogous to the human brain.
Memory & Storage The Growth of Memory and Storage Demands
The growth of memory demands will outstrip global silicon supply, presenting opportunities for radically new memory and storage solutions.
Annual investment need: $750M throughout this decade to develop emerging memories/memory fabrics with >10-100X density and energy efficiency improvement for each level of the memory hierarchy. Discover new storage systems and storage technologies with >100x storage density capability.
Communication Communication Capacity vs. Data Generation
Always-available communication requires new research directions that address the imbalance of communication capacity vs. data-generation rates.
Annual investment need: $700M throughout this decade for communication enabling data movement of 100-1000 zettabyte/year at the peak rate of 1Tbps@ <0.1nJ/bit. Develop intelligent and agile networks that effectively utilize bandwidth to maximize network capacity.
Security ICT Security Challenges
Breakthroughs in hardware research are needed to address emerging security challenges in highly interconnected systems and AI.
Annual investment need: $600M throughout this decade for privacy and security hardware advances that keep pace with new technology threats and use cases (e.g., trustworthy AI systems, secure hardware platforms, and emerging postquantum and distributed cryptographic algorithms).
Energy Efficiency Compute Energy vs. Global Energy Production
Ever-rising energy demand for computing vs. global energy production is creating new risk, and new computing paradigms offer opportunities to dramatically improve energy efficiency.
Annual investment need: $750M throughout this decade to discover computing paradigms/architectures with a radically new computing trajectory demonstrating >1,000,000x improvement in energy efficiency
