Presenter: Stefan Rusu, Sr. Principal Engineer, Intel Corp., Santa Clara, CA  Title: Power and leakage reduction in the nanoscale era

Abstract: To continue harvesting the technology scaling benefits, it is essential for chip designers to understand the nature and impact of active power and leakage, its sensitivity to different design parameters, and practical techniques to reduce it. This talk will review design techniques for active power and leakage management with examples from recent industry designs and academic research.
