ADVANCE PROGRAM
FOCUS
The
meeting will include speakers and attendees from industry,
academia and government and will focus on advanced technologies
and strategies that will enable integrated photonic devices,
modules, and systems to provide break-through capabilities
for a variety of applications ranging from communication to
sensing. A goal of the meeting is to identify key issues for
deployment of new technology and areas for future research.
FORMAT
The
meeting will include plenary sessions and topical sessions
and workshops that will present industrial, academic, and government perspectives
on the challenges facing photonic systems. Specific sessions
will be chaired by CIPS faculty.
Each topical session will review current research results,
technology development, and applications. Speakers will be
from inside and outside the MIT community. A portion of each
session will be reserved for an open discussion of major
technical and market issues; the workshops will include panel discussions. There will be two parallel sessions
on Wednesday and Thursday.
The meeting will start at 9 a.m. on Wednesday
May 14, and conclude at 3:30 p.m. on
Thursday, May 15. There will be an extensive
