Scaling down into nanometer sizes is no longer a straightforward exercise. Moore's Law scaling as we have known it is officially slowing down. And while Moore's Law grabs all the headlines, more importantly to circuit designers, Dennard scaling (power and performance) is also slowing down.

Adaptive optics enables imaging of the retina and testing of human vision on a cellular scale. In this talk, I will discuss the latest development in ophthalmic adaptive optics technology and show examples of how it is being used to measure structure and function of the human eye.

This paper develops a statistical theory to estimate an unknown factor structure based on financial high-frequency data.

Multi-robot systems are poised for impact in the future of robotics.

Driver failures may represent more than half of the failures of LED luminaires, especially for higher outputs. Further, a single constant-current driver cannot regulate current throughout parallel columns of LEDs.

Infinite 'bubble universes,' filled with alternate versions of ourselves or nothing at all, might exist right alongside our own, according to physicist Alexander Vilenkin of Tufts University, who will discuss this theory during Stanford's annual Bunyan Lecture on March 9. 

The trend of modern electronic systems, such as wireless and wireline applications, demands increasing reconfigurability, bandwidth, and dynamic range, but low power and cost.

Printed electronics is becoming more popular for fabrication of applications on flexible substrates. The most commonly used substrates are plastics but the use of paper as a substrate is becoming more widespread due to lower cost and recyclability.

Designed for the new generation of programmers, the Wolfram Language has a vast depth of built-in algorithms and knowledge, all automatically accessible through its elegant unified symbolic language.
