IEEE has announced the next
milestone phase in the development of the International Roadmap for
Devices and Systems (IRDS), an IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA)
Industry Connections (IC) Program sponsored by the IEEE Rebooting
Computing (IEEE RC) Initiative with the launch of a series of
nine white papers that
reinforce the initiative’s core mission and vision for the future of
the computing industry. The white papers also identify industry
challenges and solutions that guide and support future roadmaps created
by IRDS [

The series of white papers delivers the starting framework of the
IRDS roadmap - and through the sponsorship of IEEE RC—will inform the
various roadmap teams in the broader task of mapping the devices’ and
systems’ ecosystem:
The IRDS leadership team hosted a winter workshop and kick-off meeting
at the Georgia Institute of Technology on 1-2 December 2016. Key
discoveries from the workshop included the international focus teams’
plans and focus topics for the 2017 roadmap, top-level needs and
challenges, and linkages among the teams. Additionally, the IRDS
leadership invited presentations from the European and Japanese roadmap
initiatives. This resulted in the 2017 IRDS global membership expanding
to include team members from the “
NanoElectronics Roadmap for Europe: Identification and Dissemination” (
NEREID) sponsored by the European
Semiconductor Industry Association (ESIA), and the “
Systems and Design Roadmap of Japan” (
SDRJ) sponsored by the Japan Society of Applied
Physics (JSAP).
The IRDS team and its supporters will convene 1-3 April 2017 in
Monterey, California, for the Spring IRDS Workshop, which is part of the
2017 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS). The team
will meet again for the Fall IRDS Conference in partnership with the
2017 IEEE International Conference on Rebooting Computing
(ICRC) scheduled for 6-7 November 2017 in Washington, D.C. More
information on both events can be found
