With legacy CMOS devices reaching a plateau, memory technology is considered to play an essential role for the continued growth of semiconductor industry. Leading edge memory devices such as new 2D and 3D NVM are expected to create potentially massive market together with the development of IoT, AI, and Big Data. However, a variety of opinions exist in part due to the wide range of complexity associated with these new technologies. This Rump session has a diverse panel of experts to arrange memory technologies for IoT, AI, and Big data, and the implications of them on manufacturing, chip, and computer architecture will be discussed.
