Update on Upcoming and Past Activities

  1. Ising Machine Workshop (IISM) 2024
    The International Workshop on Ising Machines (IISM) 2024 took place in Messina, Italy from April 16 to 18, 2024. You can explore the comprehensive coverage of topics discussed, including theoretical insights into Ising machines, digital applications, simulations of innovative computing paradigms, and advancements in analog and hybrid Ising machines here.
  2. Virtual Workshop on “Next Generation Computing in the Era of Chiplets”
    On February 29, 2024, a virtual workshop was held focusing on the paradigm-shifting concept of Chiplets and their integration potential with semiconductor and emerging technologies. Discover more about this workshop here.
  3. Roadmap for Emerging Technologies-based Unconventional Computing
    Delve into a perspective paper on the utilization of emerging technologies like photonics, superconducting materials, and spintronics for unconventional computing paradigms such as neuromorphic and quantum computing. Read the publication here.
  4. Special Issue on “Neuromorphic Computing”
    We initiated a special issue on “Neuromorphic Computing” in the IEEE Transactions on Nanotechnology. For more information, visit here. The submission deadline was September 30, 2021.
  5. Second Meeting of TC-16 on Quantum, Neuromorphic, and Unconventional Computing
    The virtual workshop on unconventional computing with emerging technologies was held on May 13, 2022. Explore the workshop’s schedule, recording, and talks here. Additionally, you can access the talks on YouTube here.
  6. Kickoff Meeting of TC-16 on Quantum, Neuromorphic, and Unconventional Computing

Kickoff: TC-16 on Quantum, Neuromorphic and Unconventional Computing

Friday, May 21st, 2021

It is a pleasure to announce the first meeting of the newborn Technical Committee on Quantum, Neuromorphic and Unconventional computing of the IEEE Nanotechnology Council. This first edition, planned for June, 11th, 2021, will start at 2:00pm CEST, Rome time zone, (which will be 5:00am PDT, 8:00am EDT, 9:00pm JST) and will be virtual with a very exiting program with speakers from around the world either from academia and industry.

The list of the speakers is the following:

Kosuke Tatsumura, Corporate Research and Development Center, Toshiba Corporation, Kawasaki, Kanagawa, Japan “Autonomously-synchronizable multi-chip architecture for Ising machines based on simulated bifurcation”

Satoshi Sunada, Kanazawa, Japan
“Physical deep learning based on dynamical systems”

Hyunsoo Yang, National University of Singapore
“Spin based Neuromorphic and Unconventional Computing”

Guilherme P. Temporão, Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
“Quantum networks”

    New Technical Committees

    Thursday, May 20th, 2021

    The Nanotechnology Council is forming two new Technical Committees:

    TC16 – Quantum technologies
    TC16 will be an interdisciplinary guide for scientists working in quantum, neuromorphic and unconventional computing envisioning how nanotechnology will impact their development. A challenge will be bringing researchers of the three different communities to create a common language, with the aim to transfer solutions and exchange idea among the communities. Planned activities are: creation of a robust TC membership; organization of conference sessions; organization of special issues; articles on perspectives. For information contact the new TC’s chair Giovanni Finocchio, gfinocchio@unime.it.

    TC 17 – Plasmas and plasma-based technologies in quantum
    To fabricate high performance nanodevices and nano-systems, atomic layer and damage-free plasma nanomanufacturing technologies are indispensable. For this purpose, it is essential to develop methods for generating and transporting charged particles, UV photons, and reactive species on the surface to suppress damages and to control atomic layer surface chemical reactions in plasma processing. Achieving control of atomic layer surface chemical reactions requires diagnostics and sensors for both the plasma and resultant surface states but also models (phenomenological to the first principles) that can predict process results. Therefore, our final target is the development and implementation of intelligent plasma nanomanufacturing technologies in accordance with Industry 4.0 and 5.0 standards. For information contact the new TC’s chair Prof. Dr. Seiji Samukawa, seiji.samukawa.e2@tohoku.ac.jp.
