Disruptive approaches towards Energy Efficient VLSI Technologies

Nowadays, the data deluge related to data generation, transfer, compute and storage, induces a huge increase of power consumption related to the usage of integrated circuits. New technologies and concepts are necessary to overcome the issue. This paper will give an overview all the main ongoing developments that will significantly improve the Power efficiency of Integrated Circuits. Disruptive computing, such as Quantum or In Memory Computing are well known to provide significant improvement. Novel Non Volatile Memories, coupled with Neuromorphic architectures can also be an enabler of power efficient electronic. As data transfer is the main source of Power consumption, 3D integrations can enable chiplet approaches that reduce the length of interconnects.
