Energy consumption in data processing tasks is growing exponentially worldwide. The data industry could use around 20% of all the global electricity by 2025, disrupting targets to avoid climate change and straining even more power supply networks. In order to mitigate this scenario, it is necessary to understand which are the fundamental physical limits of computation from an energy perspective and which are the best technologies that can provide computing capabilities close to that limit. In order to achieve this goal a complete multidisciplinary approach is required.
The first IMA Conference on Energy Efficient Computing aims to bring together researchers working on all areas of physics, engineering and computer science with a special focus on the efficiency of computation. The idea is to highlight the depth and sophistication of ideas and techniques used in this field and to foster cooperation between researchers working in different areas.
Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
Fundamental limits of computation
Physics of computation
Neuromorphic engineering
Energy harvesting
Devices
Computer architecture
Embedded systems
Programming models
High performance computing
Case studies
Cyber security
Call for Papers
Contributed papers or posters are invited on all aspects of mathematics in Energy Efficient Computing. Topics covered include (but are not limited to) the following:
Fundamental limits / physics
Devices
Computer architecture
Embedded systems
Programming models
High performance computing
Energy harvesting
Case studies
Cyber security
Papers will be accepted for the conference based on a 400 word abstract for oral or poster presentation. We welcome abstracts to be submitted by 15 March 2020 via https://my.ima.org.uk. Please indicate whether your title is intended for oral “presentation” or “poster” presentation.
