Objective ICT-2011.9.8: Minimising Energy Consumption of Computing to the Limit (FET Pro-active) Target Outcome: Foundations for radically new ICT technologies striving for the theoretical limits in energy consumption New elementary devices and inter-device-communication mechanisms Novel computing paradigms with radically improved energy efficiency (e.g. inspired by biology, post-Boolean logics, …) Software models and programming methodologies supporting the strive for the energetic limit (e. g. energy cost awareness,..) Proof of concept, indication of expected energy gain, appropriate energy metrics or benchmarks for verification Objective ICT-2011.9.8: FET Proactive: Minimising Energy Consumption of Computing to the Limit (MINECC) The energy consumption of computing technologies becomes more and more an obstacle to realizing new functionalities in, for instance, mobile or distributed applications, and limits performance. It also has an increasing impact on energy supply and environment. Since energy efficiency of today's technologies is orders of magnitude above the theoretical limits, disruptive solutions and radically new approaches are needed to close this gap. Target outcomes: Proposals should lay the foundations for radically new technologies for computation that strive for the theoretical limits in energy consumption while maintaining or even enhancing functionality and performance. At least one of the following outcomes should be addressed: New elementary devices and inter-device-communication mechanisms operating at the limits of minimum energy consumption. Novel computing paradigms with radically improved energy efficiency. Examples include approaches inspired by biology, post-Boolean logics and computing under uncertainty, randomness and unreliability as a result of low-energy device properties. Software models and programming methodologies supporting the strive for the energetic limit (e. g. energy cost awareness or exploiting the trade-off between energy and performance/precision). Proposals should aim for a proof of concept and investigate the viability of the approach. The expected energy gain should be indicated, and the proposal should foresee appropriate energy metrics or benchmarks for verification. Expected impact Understanding of theoretical limits of energy efficiency in computation (e.g. energy dissipation, thermodynamic and quantum physics limits) Foundations of computing technologies with negligible energy consumption Reduction of the environmental impact caused by the energy consumption of ICT.
