This report captures the initial conclusions of the DOE seven National Lab team collaborating on the “Solving the Information Technology Energy Challenge Beyond Moore’s Law” initiative from the DOE Big Idea Summit III held in April of 2016. The seven Labs held a workshop in Albuquerque, NM in late July 2016 and gathered 40 researchers into 5 working groups: 4 groups spanning the levels of the co-design framework shown below, and a 5th working group focused on extending and advancing manufacturing approaches and coupling their constraints to all of the framework levels. These working groups have identified unique capabilities within the Labs to support the key challenges of this Beyond Moore’s Law Computing (BMC) vision, as well as example first steps and potential roadmaps for technology development.

This report provides an overview of a workshop held on July 27-28, 2016 at Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque to itemize the DOE laboratory capabilties and provide a high level organization of those capabilties into a full evaluation framework for new computing paradigms that spans from fundamental breakthroughs in materials and devices to full system architectures and software environments.
