The new waves of gadgets and endless social network internet applications have driven the demand for smarter, greener and cheaper computing solutions. Today, people are fascinated by the new dimensions of user experiences brought by visual, touching and gestural technologies. However, the core semiconductor technologies incorporated into and surrounding these gadgets are still the foundation and center of all forms of computing, event they are often forgotten and taken for granted.
The small form factor of smart phones and tablet computing today has set up new standards and requirements on IC design. Computing becomes more effective, efficient and competitive in energy, performance and cost. The smaller, smarter and greener devices are now much easier than ever to be adopted and embedded in a wider range of new applications with the available of all new platforms of mobile Operation Systems including Android, Symbian, Meego and Window Mobile. Embedded computing is reshaping the landscape of information technology in tomorrow land.
In this conference, we are honored to have some world top experts and technology veterans from key technology companies at Silicon Valley to share their views and experiences with us. They will show audiences how different technologies have evolved, and fueled the innovations in smart devices, tablet and other forms of consumer electronics. Audiences will also learn the insights from them on the future market trends and requirements in the core semiconductor industry, and the new possibilities and opportunities at embedded computing beyond our imagination.
