1.1 Unleashing the Future of Innovation
Mark Liu
Abstract
Society's demand for more powerful and more energy-efficient computing is insatiable. Every day, more than half of the world's population (4.1 billion people) [1] read the news, communicate with friends and family, take online classes, shop for everything from groceries to furniture, manage their finances and personal health, using Internet, powered by semiconductor technologies. From vaccine and drug discoveries that combat COVID-19, to autonomous vehicles that will transform the transportation industry, to the information and communication technologies that enable us to work from home and attend virtual conferences, semiconductor technology is at the heart of these epic changes that are transforming and improving our daily lives.
