DESCRIPTION:Prof. Jörg Henkel is with Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (
 KIT)\, Germany\, where he is directing the Chair for Embedded Systems CES.
  Before\, he was a Senior Research Staff Member at NEC Laboratories in Pri
 nceton\, NJ. He received his PhD from Braunschweig University with "Summa 
 cum Laude".\n\nProf. Henkel has/is organizing various embedded systems and
  low power ACM/IEEE conferences/symposia as General Chair and Program Chai
 r and was a Guest Editor on these topics in various Journals like the IEEE
  Computer Magazine.\n\nHe was Program Chair of CODES'01\, RSP'02\, ISLPED
 ’06\, SIPS'08\, CASES'09\, Estimedia'11\, VLSI Design'12\, ICCAD’12\, 
 PATMOS’13\, NOCS’14\, DAC’20 and served as General Chair for CODES'0
 2\, ISLPED’09\, Estimedia’12\, ICCAD’13\,  ESWeek'16 and MLCAD’1
 9. He is/has been a steering committee member of major conferences in the 
 embedded systems field like at ICCAD\, ESWeek\, ISLPED\, Codes+ISSS\, CASE
 S\, MLCAD and is/has been an editorial board member of various journals li
 ke the IEEE TVLSI\, IEEE TCAD\, IEEE TMSCS\, ACM TCPS\, JOLPE etc.\n\nIn r
 ecent years\, Prof. Henkel has given more than ten keynotes at various int
 ernational conferences primarily with focus on embedded systems dependabil
 ity. He has given full/half-day tutorials at leading conferences like DAC\
 , ICCAD\, DATE etc. Prof. Henkel received the 2008 DATE Best Paper Award\,
  the 2009 IEEE/ACM William J. Mc Calla ICCAD Best Paper Award\, the Codes+
 ISSS 2015\, 2014\, and 2011 Best Paper Awards\, and the MaXentric Technolo
 gies AHS 2011 Best Paper Award as well as the DATE 2013 Best IP Award and 
 the DAC 2014 Designer Track Best Poster Award. He is the Chairman of the I
 EEE Computer Society\, Germany Section\, and was the Editor-in-Chief of th
 e ACM Transactions on Embedded Computing Systems (ACM TECS) for two consec
 utive terms. He is currently the SIGDA Vice Chair and Conference Chair.\n\
 nHe is an initiator and the coordinator of the German Research Foundation'
 s (DFG) program on 'Dependable Embedded Systems' (SPP 1500). He is the sit
 e coordinator (Karlsruhe site) of the Three-University Collaborative Resea
 rch Center on "Invasive Computing" (DFG TR89). He is the Editor-in-Chief o
 f the IEEE Design&Test Magazine. He holds ten US patents and is a Fellow o
 f the IEEE.\nAbstract: Negative-Capacitance Field-Effect Transistor (NCFE
 T) is emerging as a promising new technology with various advantages as we
 ll as new challenges compared to conventional CMOS technology. NCFET techn
 ology can operate at lower voltage while they may still provide the same l
 evel of performance. While the exact trade-offs are still to be explored\,
  it is obvious that lower power designs are possible. However\, employing 
 NCFET technology will have significant effect on circuits\, architecture a
 nd system level management techniques. For example\, as opposed to convent
 ional CMOS technology there is an asymmetry in the on-current that needs t
 o be addressed at the circuit level. Another example is the power consumpt
 ion: particularly the leakage current has an inverse tendency as a functio
 n of the supply voltage. That means that conventional power management tec
 hniques for multi-core will not work any longer since they would lead to s
 ub-optimal results depending on system-level workload properties. These ar
 e some examples of the implications at the architectural and system level 
 that will be discussed during this talk after a short general introduction
  to NCFET.\n
