The Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) will jointly organize a small invitation only workshop to explore an integrated approach to nano-electronics from materials to systems to be held in October 2014 at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Mumbai, India. The primary goal of the Forum is to identify future research directions for highly functional, space-limited, digital and analog systems that must operate with extremely low energy consumption and utilize new physical principles by exploring the fundamental science of future information technologies. Leading academic and industry researchers from the US, Europe, and Asia will attend this workshop, but only the US participants will receive benefits of NSF support. The SRC is also seeking intellectual support from NSF community to run the workshop.The broader impact of the outcome of the workshop, albeit somewhat technical in nature, is expectedly very large. The potentially critical role of nano-electronics in future information technologies cannot be underestimated. Thus, one of the several goals is to explore novel approaches that may set the national agenda for research in this domain possibly leading to new NSF programs in the future, as is also the case with SRC. In the long run, the outcome will benefit the educational arena as well via adoption of technical material in new courses and university curriculum. To this end, in addition to the main scientific program, a tutorial day for disseminating educational material will also be organized preceding the workshop.

半导体研究公司(SRC)和国家科学基金会(NSF)将于2014年10月在印度孟买的塔塔基础研究所(TIFR)联合举办一个仅限受邀参加的小型研讨会，以探索纳米电子从材料到系统的综合方法。论坛的主要目标是通过探索未来信息技术的基础科学，确定高功能、空间有限的数字和模拟系统的未来研究方向，这些系统必须以极低的能源消耗运行并利用新的物理原理。来自美国、欧洲和亚洲的顶尖学术和行业研究人员将参加这次研讨会，但只有美国参与者将获得NSF支持的好处。SRC还在寻求NSF社区的智力支持来运营研讨会。研讨会结果的更广泛影响，尽管在本质上有些技术性，但预计是非常大的。纳米电子技术在未来信息技术中的潜在关键作用不可低估。因此，几个目标之一是探索新的方法，这些方法可能会为这一领域的研究设定国家议程，可能导致未来新的NSF计划，就像SRC的情况一样。从长远来看，通过在新课程和大学课程中采用技术材料，这一结果也将有利于教育领域。为此，除了主要的科学计划外，还将在讲习班之前组织一个传播教育材料的辅导日。
