The objective of this research is to greatly improve the way that digital systems such as cellular phones and patient monitoring devices interact with the real world. In this project, new circuits will be designed to exploit nanoscale electronic devices. Since the nanoscale devices are very small, it will be possible to incorporate some very sophisticated circuits into very small, low-cost packages. This will enable the overall cost of the systems to be reduced. The new circuits will also increase the portability of such systems by greatly extending their battery life. In addition, highly qualified personnel will be trained in this area to further enhance Canada's international competitiveness in both of the communications and medical instrumentation fields.

这项研究的目的是极大地改善移动电话和患者监护设备等数字系统与现实世界的交互方式。在这个项目中，将设计新的电路来利用纳米级的电子设备。由于纳米级的设备非常小，因此有可能将一些非常复杂的电路整合到非常小的低成本封装中。这将使系统的总体成本得以降低。新的电路还将通过极大地延长电池寿命来增加此类系统的便携性。此外，还将培训这一领域的高素质人员，以进一步提高加拿大在通信和医疗器械领域的国际竞争力。
