“New Horizons for Memory Storage: Advancing Non-Volatile Memory with Atomistic Simulations”

June 29th – July 1st, 2016

Trinity College

Dublin, Ireland

Site: https://www.tcd.ie/Physics/nvm/

Scope: This workshop will bring together an international community of researchers from academia, government labs, and industry to discuss how atomistic simulations can help advance non-volatile memory research. A new generation of memory devices is required to continue Moore’s law to ever smaller dimensions. This workshop will discuss some of the advantages and challenges with potential non-volatile memory devices (e.g. phase change, resistive RAM, and magnetic RAM) and highlight new opportunities for young researchers.

Confirmed Invited Speakers include:

• Anders Blom (QuantumWise, Inc.)
• Mairbek Chshiev (CEA-Grenoble, France)
• Yoshihiro Asai (AIST, Japan)
• Stephan Menzel (RWTH, Aachen, Germany)
• Macro Bernasconi (University of Milano Bicocca, Italy)
• Martin Gradhand (University of Bristol, UK)
• Evgeny Tsymbal (University of Nebraska, USA)
• Luca Larcher (MDLab Software, Italy)
• Sebastian Wicklein (SanDisk, USA)
• Kota Murali (Global Foundaries, USA)
• Tomas Jungwirth (Institute of Physics, Czech Republic)

Abstract Submission:

Participants are encouraged to submit abstracts before May 15th for an oral presentation (15 minutes) or poster session. Further submission instructions can be found on the workshop website.

This conference is made possible through funding from the Psi-k Network, CRANN, QuantumWise, Inc., and CEA-Grenoble.
