Abstract: Semiconductor industry is on the path towards one trillion-dollars in revenue by 2030, however, carbon emissions from semiconductor processes are expected to rise at a much steeper rate than the industry scaling. Enabling sustainable growth by lowering greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption and increasing reliance on renewable energy for operations will be critical to keeping our fabs running. Companies within the semiconductor ecosystem recognize this need and are committed to reducing the carbon footprint of their products. A systems approach is essential to determine the real contributions from the process chambers, sub-fab equipment, and facility level utilities consumption towards the overall emissions from chipmaking, which will guide how best to improve the environmental performance of wafer fab equipment. Based on the lifecycle impact of process gases and the energy consumption patterns of a manufacturing tool, we define the most effective emission reduction strategies. Improved abatement of residual gases and intelligent use of energy & resources based on the tool utilization, can reduce emissions significantly. Applied Materials 3x30 commitment to reduce energy consumption, chemical impact and cleanroom footprint per wafer each by 30% by 2030 will help chip manufacturers meet their sustainability commitments.

However, the architecture of the current wireless networks is often fixed, and the optimization tasks are defined to cope with specific and identified challenges and services. Hence, the prevailing manual and predetermined optimization and configuration tasks are no longer appropriate for future networks. We are working on resolving such issues by proposing a framework inspired by theories and tools inspired by complex systems science, focusing on the impact of network topology on the system's (i) information representation and transfer, (ii) robustness, and (iii) self-synchronization capabilities. We will also look into how the IoT is creating a new structure of awareness – a cybernetic one – upon physical processes and discuss how industries of different kinds are expected to join soon this revolution, leading to the so-called Factories of the Future, also called Industry 5.0. We will then discuss different problems in this space and how to solve them resorting to tools from mmWave, AI, and semantic communications.

Millimeter wave automotive radars are highly reliable in all-weather environments and are indispensable for both advanced driver assistant systems (ADAS) and autonomous vehicles. The presentation will highlight recent advancements that continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible in automotive radar technology for fully autonomous driving. Key topics include the use of sparse arrays synthesized with multi-input multi-output (MIMO) radar technology to achieve enhanced angular resolution, innovative waveform designs for mitigating mutual interference between automotive radars, and high-resolution direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation from a single snapshot. We will also address the challenges of applying MIMO radar theories in automotive contexts, including the use of model-based deep neural networks for high-resolution DOA estimation and the integration of domain-knowledge-guided deep learning in radar perception for autonomous vehicles. Finally, we will discuss future directions for automotive radar, with a focus on enhanced collaborative sensing through the use of multiple automotive radar systems.
