Thank You for Participating

Welcome Sign in the Lobby of Sutardja Dai Hall Attendees at the Registration Desk Before the Start of the Symposium Spintronics Session Question from the Audience Spintronics Panel Jeff Hawkins, Keynote Speaker Question from the Audience Poster Session in the Lobby of Hearst Memorial Mining Building Bob Colwell, Keynote Speaker The Audience Audience's Comment during the TFET Session TFET Panel Si Photonics Panel with Moderator

When it was established in 2009, we could only imagine that this Symposium would convene for the fourth time. Since then, each Symposium has been more successful than the previous one. We would like to thank the 2015 Organizing Committee for developing such an interesting program.

The quality of the program rested on the invited and contributed papers, as well as the poster session. We would like to thank all of the presenters, many of whom traveled significant distances to make the 4th Symposium a huge success.

We included more back and forth discussion to make the 4th Symposium a lively event, promoting the interactive atmosphere that has always been our goal. Thanks must be accorded to the moderators, whose insightful questions contributed to making the panels the highlight of this year’s symposium.

The Berkeley Symposium on Energy Efficient Electronic Systems is a biennial event. Do come back in early 2017 for more information on the next Symposium. We look forward to seeing you at the 5th Symposium as we, together, will learn of further progress in this field.
