IEDM meaning in Community ?

The IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM) is an annual micro- and nanoelectronics conference held each December that serves as a forum for reporting technological breakthroughs in the areas of semiconductor and related device technologies, design, manufacturing, physics, modeling and circuit-device interaction.

The IEEE IEDM is where "Moore’s Law" got its name, as Gordon Moore first published his predictions in an article in Electronics Magazine in 1965. Ten years later he refined them in a talk at the IEDM, and from that point on people began referring to them as Moore's Law. Moore’s Law states that the complexity of integrated circuits would double approximately every two years.

IEDM brings together managers, engineers, and scientists from industry, academia, and government around the world to discuss nanometer-scale CMOS transistor technology, advanced memory, displays, sensors, MEMS devices, novel quantum and nanoscale devices using emerging phenomena, optoelectronics, power, energy harvesting, and ultra-high-speed devices, as well as process technology and device modeling and simulation. The conference also encompasses discussions and presentations on devices in silicon, compound and organic semiconductors, and emerging material systems. In addition to technical paper presentations, IEDM includes multiple plenary presentations, panel sessions, tutorials, short courses, invited talks, exhibits and an entrepreneurship panel session conducted by experts in the field from around the globe.

The 67th annual IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting will be held December 11–15, 2021 at the Hilton San Francisco Union Square hotel, with on-demand content available afterward. The Plenary talks are:The Smallest Engine Transforming Humanity: The Past, Present, and Future, Kinam Kim, Vice Chairman & CEO, Head of Samsung Electronics Device Solutions Division, Samsung; Creating the Future: Augmented Reality, the Next Human-Machine Interface, Michael Abrash, Chief Scientist, Facebook Reality Labs; and Quantum Computing Technology, Heike Riel, Head of Science & Technology, IBM Research and IBM Fellow.
