Information in its various forms is a fundamental aspect of modern life. Advances in information storage, processing, and manipulation have ushered in the information age, transforming the world into a “global village” characterized by wireless communication, internet companies, and ubiquitous information devices. These significant changes over recent decades stem from the evolution of information technology, beginning with the integrated circuit and modern microprocessor, rooted in von Neumann's principles from 1945 and the 1948 invention of the transistor by Shockley, Bardeen, and Brattain. Computing machines have evolved from large, specialized systems to powerful handheld devices, with future advancements leading to even smaller and more capable technologies, fostering an environment of ambient intelligence. The challenge of finding specific information has shifted to selecting relevant data from an overwhelming amount of available information. This rapid technical evolution demands increased processing power, greater storage capacity, and innovative concepts to enhance system intelligence. As more individuals engage in virtual spaces and as robots, smart sensors, and actuator systems interact with the physical world, the need for processing power will continue to grow.
