"What role will materials engineering play?"


EVENT ADVISORY: Semiconductor Industry Experts to Examine the Changing Face of Non-Volatile Memory

SANTA CLARA, Calif., December 1, 2015 - Memory technologies have long been dominated by DRAM and NAND, with phase-change memory representing a niche market and storage-class memory (SCM) a potential new category. The massive amount of data that is being generated every day by the growing number of connected devices is creating a bottleneck in the cache/memory/storage hierarchy, and is driving a greater focus on SCM technology and 3D NAND to improve performance. This transformation of the industry`s non-volatile memory (NVM) roadmap raises many questions and challenges.

On December 8, 2015, Applied Materials will host a forum in Washington D.C. titled, "The Changing Face of Non-Volatile Memory" to examine some of the issues that lie ahead. The discussion will address such questions as whether or not today`s 3D NAND can be improved to remain the leader in the NVM space. If not, what fundamental changes will take place in NVM technology? Where might SCM best fit in a new hierarchy? What role will materials engineering play? What impact will latency, cost per bit, power and bandwidth have?
