International Symposium on Low Power Electronics and Design (ISLPED 2026)

Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois, USA, 5-7 August 2026

ISLPED is a leading forum for low-power electronics, from devices and circuits to design tools, architectures and system software. This edition put strong emphasis on AI’s energy problem, with keynotes on in-memory and near-data computing.

HYBRAIN coordinator Wilfred G. van der Wiel (University of Twente) gave a keynote, “Reconfigurable Nonlinear Computing in Silicon,” on silicon nanoelectronic devices that compute nonlinear functions directly in hardware, including analogue speech recognition. Both are results of HYBRAIN research.
