Semiconductor Research Corp. and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency have selected seven university-run research centers as part of the second iteration of the Joint University Microelectronics Program.
The centers will focus on seven research themes of JUMP 2.0: cognition; communications and connectivity; intelligent sensing to action; systems and architectures for distributed compute; intelligent memory and storage; advanced monolithic and heterogenous integration; and high-performance energy efficient devices, SRC said Wednesday.
The seven research centers selected under JUMP 2.0 are:
- Center for Heterogeneous Integration of Micro Electronic Systems, Penn State
- Center for Processing with Intelligent Storage and Memory, University of California San Diego
- Center for the Co-Design of Cognitive Systems, Georgia Institute of Technology
- Center for Ubiquitous Connectivity, Columbia University
- Center on Cognitive Multispectral Sensors, Georgia Tech
- Evolvable Computing for Next Generation Distributed Computer Systems, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign
- Superior Energy-Efficient Materials and Devices, Cornell University
In December 2021, SRC and DARPA launched JUMP 2.0 to support research that addresses new and emerging challenges facing microelectronics and other information and communications technologies.
