Workshop on Emerging Technologies for Interconnects

向不断增加的处理核心数量的转变——在消费设备的单个插座内和在服务器中的多个插座内——使互连成为计算行业面临的挑战的前沿。虽然有证据表明，传统金属互连的替代品将需要满足未来的性能需求和功率限制，但这些领域的研究在很大程度上局限于计算堆栈的特定领域，并且在问题子领域方面几乎没有取得进展。因此，迫切需要从物理到系统的整体研究工作，并生产出比现在更复杂的原型和开发工具，以实现商业应用。新兴互连技术研讨会将汇集主要研究人员、行业开发人员和项目经理，以确定新兴互连技术的研究和商业采用议程。在有关新兴互联技术“最新发展状况”的演讲和讨论之后，将举行分组会议和讨论。这些会议将确定和阐明关键的研究挑战，以及可能最有希望的解决方案/方向，并制定建议的更大规模的国家战略和研究议程。更广泛的影响将是消除钥匙

The shift to an ever-increasing number of processing cores--within asingle socket in consumer devices and across multiple sockets inservers--has brought interconnects to the forefront of the challengesfacing the computing industry. While evidence suggests thatalternatives to conventional metal interconnects will be needed tomeet future performance demands and power constraints, research inthese areas has been largely limited in scope to specific areas of thecomputing stack, and little progress has been made across problemsub-domains. Thus, there is a dire need for holistic research effortsspanning the stack from physics to systems, and that produceprototypes and development tools that are of much greatersophistication than exist today in order to enable commercialadoption.The Workshop on Emerging Technologies for Interconnects will bringtogether key researchers, industry developers, and program managers inorder to define an agenda for the research and commercial adoption ofemerging interconnect technologies. Presentations and discussions onthe "state of the state-of-the-art" of emerging technologies forinterconnects will be followed by break-out sessions and discussions.These sessions will identify and articulate the key researchchallenges, and potentially most promising solutions/directions, andchart the recommended larger-scale national strategy and researchagenda. The broader impact will be the elimination of the key
