DESCRIPTION:Prof. Kaushik ROY\, Electrical and Computer Engineering Facult
 y\, Purdue University\nScaling of technology has adverse effects on stabil
 ity of on-chip memories.\n\nDue to increased leakage current and parameter
  variations and the need for minimal sized transistors for high density\, 
 the standard 6T SRAM cells show high failure rate at low supply voltages. 
 In this talk I will explore different memory design options and technologi
 es for future on-chip caches. In particular\, I will focus on design and o
 ptimization of spin-transfer torque magnetic memories (using spin as a sta
 te variable) which has the possibility of replacing high level on-chip cac
 hes/main-memory in future processors. Finally (time permitting)\, I will c
 onsider the possibilities of logic design using spin as a state variable.
