Nanosystems: Technologies and Architectures for Sensing and Computing

Abstract

Nanosystems - based on the systematic application of nano-technologies - will create a large market of applications and a renewed perspective for electronic design and manufacturing companies. Such systems will be the fundamental building blocks of wearable and ambient systems, to gather and integrate heterogeneous data in real time and to operate and communicate in a wireless and ultra low power mode. The design of these systems will be enabled by the hybridization of manufacturing technologies to attain unprecedented levels performance as well as to diversify applications by means of integrated circuits and sensors. To accomplish this ambitious goal, new technologies and architectures must be matched and tailored to the operational environment by solving novel challenging design and optimization problems, through the creation of novel design methodologies and tools.

Nanotechnology

Nanotechnology, often shortened to nanotech, is the use of matter on atomic, molecular, and supramolecular scales for industrial purposes. The earliest, widespread description of nanotechnology referred to the particular technological goal of precisely manipulating atoms and molecules for fabrication of macroscale products, also now referred to as molecular nanotechnology. A more generalized description of nanotechnology was subsequently established by the National Nanotechnology Initiative, which defined nanotechnology as the manipulation of matter with at least one dimension sized from 1 to 100 nanometers (nm).

Design methods

Design methods are procedures, techniques, aids, or tools for designing. They offer a number of different kinds of activities that a designer might use within an overall design process. Conventional procedures of design, such as drawing, can be regarded as design methods, but since the 1950s new procedures have been developed that are more usually grouped together under the name of "design methods". What design methods have in common is that they "are attempts to make public the hitherto private thinking of designers; to externalise the design process".

Integrated circuit

An integrated circuit or monolithic integrated circuit (also referred to as an IC, a chip, or a microchip) is a set of electronic circuits on one small flat piece (or "chip") of semiconductor material, usually silicon. Large numbers of miniaturized transistors and other electronic components are integrated together on the chip. This results in circuits that are orders of magnitude smaller, faster, and less expensive than those constructed of discrete components, allowing a large transistor count.
