IBM and Samsung have announced their collaboration on the research of semiconductor materials, production processes and other fundamental technologies.
The research is intended to make a difference in various fields, from smartphone production to communications infrastructure, and will be carried out in the Albany Nanotech Complex in Albany, NY. Scientists and engineers of both corporations within the Semiconductor Research Alliance will work on the development of new production materials, transistor systems and ultradense composition of computing elements.
The research is supposed to contribute to the next technological leap of the two companies due to the increase of productivity, energy efficiency and compactness of the future glass semiconductor elements.
The initiated cooperation of Samsung and IBM is also extending their Joint Process Development Agreement to various nodes, including 20 nm technologies. They are supposed to be used in the upcoming projects for the manufacture companies, clients of the allies. The engineering rate of 20 nm and lower is intended to increase the productivity and energy efficiency of microchips drastically.
The Samsung Semiconductor R&D Center will participate in the research, also. The two companies are striving to implement the revolutionary achievements in their production and surpass the competitors, helping retain the firm leading positions in the market.
The 20 nm technologies have also been announced to be the key point at the Common Platform Technology Forum 2011, which is to be held on January 18, 2011 at the Santa Clara Convention Center, Santa Clara, CA. The forum is going to be focused on accessing industry ready technologies, design solutions and high technologies for mobile and low power development. Among other topics the forum hosts have announced invention process and technology delivery.
Indeed, mobile development has outstripped all the other fields of technological competition and, together with application development, depends greatly on the huge steps the world's largest technological companies take.
A London-based company with offices in Belarus, Germany, and the USA, Intellectsoft, Ltd. is a leader in providing cutting-edge mobile solutions and unique mobile applications for a range of smartphone platforms including iPhone, Android, Blackberry and WinPhone7. Intellectsoft, Ltd. develops customized solutions and applications for businesses throughout a variety of fields - healthcare, finance, entertainment, gaming, social networking, etc.
