Scaling the Power Wall
Dr. Jan Rabaey
Donald O. Pederson Distinguished Professor, University of California Berkeley

Many approaches have been introduced to address the concerns regarding both active and standby power. Yet, none of these provides a persistent answer that extends into the foreseeable future. Going to the next step will require us to venture in some new directions, some of which may be quite unorthodox. In this presentation, we will browse some of the opportunities that may arise through ultra low-power design and outline some potential solutions.

Power Reduction: Is it Time to Re-examine Asynchronous Design?
Dr. Robert Damiano
Synopsys Fellow and Vice President, Advanced Technology Group

This presentation will introduce some existing methodologies for designing ICs that are free of global clock distribution networks. These ICs have lower power and are less sensitive to variation compared to their conventional counterparts. Research opportunities for new tools in this area will also be addressed.
