Those efforts will target the most cutting - edge areas of
nanoelectronics, including advanced lithography, 3D packaging, and metrology technologies that are critical to enabling the smaller, faster, and more powerful computer chips driving nearly every
industry.
Many networks have been created to promote cooperation between companies and universities, as well as recruitment, such as the E.U. - funded Mathematics, Computing, and Simulation for
Industry (MACSI) project, the European Consortium for Mathematics in
Industry (ECMI), the European Community on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences (ECCOMAS), the Network on Computations in Commutative Algebra, and the newly established Marie - Curie Research Training Network in Coupled Multiscale Simulation and Optimization in
Nanoelectronics (COMSON) project.
