As Moore’s Law is slowing down and eventually approaching an end for conventional CMOS, new platforms for producing circuit-level innovation are desired. At the same time, it is not desirable to throw away the existing Si-CMOS infrastructure to start new. This talk presents an overview of the 10-year research program, which is a “vertical” innovative platform by “inserting” III-V layers into a conventional Si-CMOS foundry process. The talk also presents a unified compact model for generic GaN/InGaAs-based HEMTs in the context of the hybrid III-V + CMOS technology developed for future heterogeneous integrated circuits. The developed model has been implemented in a hybrid III-V/CMOS foundry PDK for designing heterogeneous circuits in III-V/Si monolithically co-integrated technology.

His research at NTU mainly focuses on nanoscale CMOS compact model development. His research group has been developing a unified core model for nanoscale bulk, SOI, double-gate, nanowire CMOS, as well as III-V HEMTs. He has given more than 150 IEEE EDS distinguished lectures and invited talks at various universities as well as industry and research institutions. Dr. Zhou was the founding chair for the Workshop on Compact Modeling (WCM) in association with the NSTI Nanotechnology Conference (2002–2018). He was an editor for the IEEE Electron Device Letters (2007–2016), a guest Editor-in-Chief for the special issue of the IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices (Feb. 2014) on compact modeling of emerging devices, and a member of the Modeling & Simulation subcommittee for IEDM (2016, 2017). He was an Elected Member-at-Large of EDS Board of Governors (2004–2009; 2011–2016) and served as Vice-President for Regions/Chapters (2013–2015). He has been an EDS Distinguished Lecturer since 2000. He is a Life Senior Member of the IEEE and currently serves as chair for the RS/EPS/EDS Singapore Joint Chapter.

A talk by Prof. Min-Fu Hsieh of National Cheng Kung University (NCKU), Tainan Taiwan, exploring the integration of AI in diagnosing motor faults and advancing motor design, highlighting how AI can significantly enhance the reliability and performance of electric motors in green transportation. It will delve into the use of machine learning and deep learning models to predict and prevent motor failures (e.g., inter-turn short-circuits, demagnetization, and bearing faults), which is essential for ensuring safety and reliability in transportation and industry. Furthermore, the talk will highlight AI-driven innovations in motor design, such as noise-reduction, offering insights into how AI can revolutionize traditional motor systems and contribute to ongoing improvements in predictive maintenance and design practices. Agenda: 6:30 - 7:00 Socializing and Networking at Quadrant 6:55 Zoom session will be online with Waiting Room 7:00 - 7:45 Lecture begins, online and in person 7:45 - 8:00 Questions and Answers 1120 Ringwood Ct, San Jose, California, United States, 95131, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/481023

Join your fellow IEEE OEB-LMAG members for lunch, and an opportunity to hear about Pixar from Dan McCoy, a key technical contributor to Pixar’s award-winning software “RenderMan”, as well as many of its blockbuster movies. Dan will talk about Pixar and the technology it uses to develop its 3D Animated movies. This is a chance to hear about how Pixar has changed the way that 3D animated movies, and all movies with 3D special effects, are made. It is also a great chance to make new friends and socialize with other IEEE members and guests. Speaker(s): Dan McCoy, Dan Agenda: Presentation and lunch. Bufett or order from menu depending upon the number of registrants. Member fee is subsidized. Bldg: Golf course restaurant, not pro shop, Beeb's Sports Bar and Grill, 915 Club House Drive, Livermore, California, United States, 94551

He shows that today’s agents aren’t just “smart autocomplete” but self-directed ideators, experimenters, analysts, and creators. Drawing on his recent publications, he argues that AI agents already deliver end-to-end autonomy: how aiXplain autonomously refine Agentic AI workflows via continuous LLM-driven feedback loops, ideate and implement enterprise Agentic AI use-cases, and derive actionable business insights from enterprise data—producing executive-ready reports without human intervention. ...

Agentic AI represents a paradigm shift in artificial intelligence, moving beyond static models and reactive systems to dynamic, autonomous agents capable of setting goals, making decisions, and adapting over time. Unlike traditional AI, which passively responds to inputs, agentic AI can plan, reason, and act in complex, real-world environments—making it especially suited for the demands of modern healthcare. ...
