Semiconductor has served to create digital platform infrastructure. Recently, the importance of semiconductor is anew increasing due to many concurrent reasons: Digital Transformation (DX) accelerated by pandemic, request to fulfill carbon neutral in 2050, and worldwide shortage of LSI devices. Moreover, Japan tries to regenerate a new social system called "Society 5.0", where everybody can inclusively benefit from data informatics. Towards that end, digitalization of Japanese society through DX and data informatics is imminent. A nationwide new ecosystem that creates new services and industries, supported by advanced semiconductors and design methodologies will play a central role for such transformation.
In the symposium, specialists from both academia and industry are invited to talk on the attempts to drive a new society through advanced semiconductors and design methodologies. Also, several ecosystems and platforms led by Systems Design Lab. (d.lab) to serve for such transformation will be presented.
Through the presentations, the organizers wish to boost considerations for cooperation to enrich future society.
