Boosting electronic system reliability
Reliable electronic systems are the backbone of critical operations, from spacecraft navigation to medical equipment. However, the rapid evolution of semiconductor technologies has introduced new complexities, making the design of dependable systems increasingly challenging. As demands for performance and efficiency rise, the margin for error shrinks, amplifying the consequences of system failures. In this context, the EU-funded TWIN-RELECT project aims to bolster the design capabilities of electronic systems through strategic partnerships and cutting-edge research. Collaborating with top-tier partners in France, Germany, and the UK, the project seeks to strengthen the University of Thessaly’s expertise in designing robust electronic systems. Through joint research, staff exchanges, and strategic networking, TWIN-RELECT seeks to develop cutting-edge tools and methodologies.
Reliable electronic systems are crucial in a wide range of applications, such as space missions, avionics, automotive, smart industry, medicine, banking, nuclear power plants, high energy physics research. With the introduction of advanced semiconductor technologies, the design of reliable electronic systems has become more challenging, requiring novel analysis and design methods and tools. The ultimate goal of TWIN-RELECT project is to boost the scientific and innovation capacity of UTH in the design of reliable electronic systems through strategic networking with three advanced partners: IHP - Institute for High Performance Microelectronics from Germany, National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) from France, and University of Manchester from United Kingdom. The TWIN-RELECT collaboration will employ a set of actions grouped into five main components: (i) joint exploratory research aimed at the development of a novel tool for simulation of reliability effects and design of reliable integrated circuits, (ii) knowledge transfer through staff exchanges, joint training experiments, supervision of early stage researchers and organization of training schools, (iii) knowledge transfer in relation to research management and administration, (iv) enhancement of networking capacity through organization or workshops, business events, special sessions at conferences, webinars with related projects and international symposium, and (v) establishment of conditions for long term collaboration between UTH and advanced partners, as well as interested stakeholders. |
