Conclusions

• Ambient Intelligence has been presented

• Challenges for IC design are many-fold:

  • Ultra low cost [ubiquity]
  • Ultra low power [5 year battery life; off the environment]
  • Ultra high-speed [100 GOPS….1 TOPS]
  • Novel architectural approaches on silicon needed

• Applications in various domains

  • Car, office, home

• Convergence of computing, communications and consumer electronics means business
