IoT: Design Challenges and Opportunities
Danielle Griffith, Texas Instruments

Abstract: TBA

Biography: Danielle Griffith has been with Texas Instruments in Dallas, Texas since 2003 and is a Distinguished Member of the Technical Staff in the Low Power RF group. She develops circuits and techniques for reducing cost, power consumption, and circuit board area for wireless connectivity products that support standards such as Bluetooth Low Energy and Zigbee. Her current focus areas are low power oscillators and MEMS circuitry. She has published 28 papers, 24 of them in IEEE journals or conferences. She has written a book chapter titled "Synchronization Clocks for Ultra-Low Power Wireless Networks" which was published by Springer as a part of the book "Ultra-Low-Power Short-Range Radios". Danielle holds 11 issued US patents and has given multiple university and IEEE conference tutorial and workshop sessions. She was a member of the IEEE RFIC Technical Program Committee for conferences years 2014 and 2015, and has been a member of the IEEE International Solid State Circuits Conference Technical Program committee since conference year 2015. Danielle received the B.S.E.E. and M.Eng. degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge in 1996 and 1997, respectively.


IoT: No more Moore? Let's break the law!
Wolf Richter, President, EPIC Semiconductor

Abstract: If everybody tells the same story, then it's time to start new adventures! For a short time let the ARMy of boring "me-too" behind and discover a new realm of possibilities in the melting pot of digital and analog circuits. Experience a new form of "Inherent Artificial Intelligence", self-powered contactless "Smart-by-Nature" sensing circuits (beyond RFID & NFC), as well as new ideas for MEMS and Charge Coupled Devices (CCD). How about a kind of "Alma-Mater-on-Chip", a vast cluster of "teachers" and "students", realized with "EPIC's nCP nanoCloudProcessors", to outsmart even Quantum computers? Wolf Richter talks & demonstrates (live on stage) what's possible today, to give you "Epic" ideas for tomorrow!
