On 21 May 2015, the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation) granted a second four-year funding period of the Collaborative Research Center 912 "Highly Adaptive Energy-Efficient Computing" (HAEC). cfaed congratulates HAEC to this achievement! HAEC is embedded into the research structure of cfaed as one of its research paths. One of the most challenging topics of today’s information and communication technology is energy-efficiency. The mission of HAEC is to enable high energy-efficiency in today’s computing systems without compromising on high performance. The CRC follows an integrated approach for highly adaptive energy-efficient computing to approach energy-efficient computing at all involved technology levels.
“During Phase I, we already have achieved remarkable progress in the area of highly adaptive energy-efficient information processing, both, at the hardware as well as the software levels,” Prof. Gerhard Fettweis, HAEC’s coordinator says. During Phase II, these results will be further investigated.
To address the demanding scientific challenges, HAEC’s number of subprojects has increased from 15 during Phase I to 21 in Phase II. 19 Professors of the faculties of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Computer Science, and Mathematics participate in HAEC. The second funding period will last from 1 July 2015 until 30 June 2019.

cfaed researcher Dr. Ihsan Amin, postdoc at the Chair of Macromolecular Chemistry / Prof. Rainer Jordan, was awarded an cfaed INSPIRE Grant within the 2014 call. This grant recently allowed him to realize a visiting research stay in the group of Prof. Christopher K. Ober, Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, USA.During his research stay in Cornell, Ihsan Amin worked on the development of a new method of polymerization which is called “Surface-initiated copper radical polymerization/Si-CuCRP”. This was first developed at the group of Prof. Jordan at TU Dresden. The Polymer brushes obtained from this method are used for the application in biosensors.

From April 14th until April 16th 2015 the International Conference on Frontiers of Characterization and Metrology for Nanoelectronics (FCMN) was held in the Hilton hotel in Dresden. The conference was co-organized by cfaed's technology platform Dresden Center for Nanoanalysis (DCN). It focused on the characterization technology needed for nanoelectronic materials and device research, development, and manufacturing. In total 141 people from 11 countries participated in the meeting, among others from Germany, the USA, Japan and Korea. The tours to the state-of-the-art metrology facilities at Global Foundries and Fraunhofer IPMS-CNT attracted much attention.Directly following this meeting, the 3rd Dresden Nanoanalysis Symposium was held on Friday April 17th. It was organized by DCN in cooperation with the Dresden Fraunhofer Cluster Nanoanalysis. A total of 81 attendees joined to listen to a variety of talks, from fundamental research to the industrial perspective. The winner of the poster competition was Sebastian Schneider from IFW Dresden with the Poster “Exploring the properties of individual nanomagnets: EMCD on FePt nanocubes”.
