Exponential improvements in computing performance known as the Moore's law, that drove economic growth in the 20th century, are now perceived to be stalled due to fundamental barriers of power dissipation and bandwidth associated with electronic circuits. The workshop will explore future possibilities of new types of logic circuits and interconnects to address the technical challenges associated with low power computing. Specifically, the Electrical Communications and Cyber Systems (ECCS) Division in the Engineering Directorate at NSF, and the Computing and Communication Foundations (CCF) Division at the Computer Information Sciences and Engineering (CISE) Directorate at NSF are holding a workshop in collaboration with the Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC) to explore the future research directions in the domain of low power electronics as may be required to satisfy the needs of next generation computing by the semiconductor industry. The invitation only workshop will assemble leading experts in the field from both academia and industry research laboratories for a period of two days. The workshop will generate a report which may form the basis for NSF and SRC to formulate new programs and/or modify existing programs in the area.

被称为摩尔定律（Moore’s law）的计算性能的指数级提高，推动了20世纪的经济增长，但由于与电子电路相关的功耗和带宽的基本障碍，现在被认为陷入了停滞。研讨会将探讨新型逻辑电路和互连的未来可能性，以解决与低功耗计算相关的技术挑战。具体来说，美国国家科学基金会工程部的电气通信和网络系统（ECCS）部门，美国国家科学基金会（NSF）计算机信息科学与工程理事会（CISE）计算与通信基础部（CCF）与半导体研究公司（SRC）合作举办研讨会，探讨低功耗电子领域的未来研究方向，以满足半导体工业对下一代计算的需求。该研讨会将邀请来自学术界和行业研究实验室的领域领先专家参加，为期两天。研讨会将产生一份报告，作为NSF和SRC制定新项目和/或修改该领域现有项目的基础。
