From transistor to memristor: switching technologies for the future

KAUST · Jun 28

KAUST researchers have published a review paper in Science magazine covering memristor technology, comparing it to the original transistor. Dr. Mario Lanza is the lead author of the paper, which summarizes data supporting memristor technology readiness across materials and applications. The paper statistically shows the technical criteria for how memristors function in various configurations. Why it matters: Memristors could become the new switching technology standard, surpassing transistors in speed and operational efficiency, especially as current chip technology reaches its quantum limit in terms of size.

Computing in the Post-Moore Era

MBZUAI · Invalid Date

A professor from EPFL (Lausanne) gave a talk at MBZUAI on computing in the post-Moore era, highlighting the slowing of Moore's Law due to physical limits in transistor miniaturization. He discussed research challenges and opportunities for future computing technologies. He presented examples of post-Moore technologies he helped develop in the datacenter space. Why it matters: As Moore's Law slows, research into alternative computing paradigms becomes critical for the continued advancement of AI and digital services in the UAE and globally.
