Through the Looking Glass-2020 Edition: Trends in Solid-State Circuits From ISSCC

The International Solid-State Circuits Conference (ISSCC) is the flagship conference of the IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society. The theme for ISSCC 2020 is "Integrated Circuits Powering the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Era." Advances in solid-state circuits and systems have brought ever more powerful communication and computational capabilities into mobile form factors. Such ubiquitous smart devices lie at the heart of a revolution shaping how we connect, collaborate, build relationships, and share information. These social technologies enable people to maintain connections and support networks not otherwise possible; they provide the ability to access information instantaneously and from any location, thereby helping to shape world events and culture, empower citizens of all nations, and create social networks that help worldwide communities develop and form bonds based on common interests.
