[Seminar] Pioneering the Era of AI Data Centers through Photonic-Electronic Integration

The particle visualization technology developed under our brand "ViEST" has a very high level of detection sensitivity, capable of visualizing the suspended or adhered states of micro and nano-sized particles in real time. We are engaged in the sale of visualization systems and contract services for evaluation (investigating particles and airflow in production processes, inside and outside manufacturing equipment, evaluating the performance of cleaning products, proposing yield improvement measures, etc.) both domestically and internationally. In manufacturing environments, invisible fine foreign substances, dust generation, particle adhesion due to static electricity, and airflow disturbances can cause quality defects and reduced yield. Our company clarifies these contamination factors through visualization technology and provides consistent support from identifying the source of the problem to considering and confirming improvement measures. Do you have any of the following concerns? - Unable to identify the cause of foreign matter contamination - Want to check airflow and cleanliness in clean rooms - Want to understand dust generation from manufacturing equipment and transport systems - Want to reduce particle adhesion to films and substrates - Want to improve contamination that leads to reduced yield

In this seminar, we will focus on the challenges of sensitivity reduction and separation performance in GC/MS analysis, and introduce the latest technologies and practical know-how that can help solve these issues. This time, we will also have a presentation from LECO Japan, who will discuss the benefits and applications of high-resolution and high-separation analysis with real examples. Additionally, Restek will introduce column technologies effective for improving sensitivity in trace analysis. Restek: We will explain the inert performance of the RMX GC column, which is effective for improving sensitivity in trace analysis, and the column technology that suppresses adsorption loss in low concentration areas, along with actual measurement data. LECO: We will present the latest application examples of comprehensive detection of trace components using high-sensitivity GC-TOFMS and RMX columns, including environmental, aroma, and material analysis. This content is recommended for anyone involved in multi-component analysis using GC/MS, whether for target or non-target analysis, as well as those who are just starting out. We will provide clear explanations suitable for beginners in GC/MS, so please join us.

[Speaker] Hidetaka Ishibashi, Director of IoT Planning Department, KDDI Corporation [Key Lecture Content] Against the backdrop of declining birth rates, an aging population, and labor shortages, the nature of mobility is reaching a significant turning point. KDDI has established a "Mobility Control Center" to integratively support new mobility solutions such as autonomous vehicles, drones, and robots, based on the knowledge and infrastructure cultivated through the operation of connected cars. In this lecture, we will focus on the communication and monitoring functions that are essential for the social implementation of each mobility solution, discussing the challenges and efforts towards their resolution, as well as the future vision that KDDI aims for. [Lecture Items] 1. Efforts and history of connected cars 2. Development and initiatives for new mobility 3. Importance of remote monitoring in a mobility society 4. Challenges in communication and monitoring and efforts towards solutions 5. Future vision of the mobility society that KDDI aims for 6. Q&A

[Speaker] Ayako Tejima, Chief Researcher, and Yi Zhang, Senior Researcher ICT Research and Consulting Department, Information and Communications Research Institute, Inc. [Key Lecture Content] The rapid increase in power consumption of data centers due to the proliferation of generative AI has become a critical issue that affects the sustainable growth of AI businesses. In this lecture, we will explain the photonic-electronic convergence technology, which is being implemented in society as a trump card to break through this "power wall." While analyzing the research and development trends of global players, primarily major semiconductor companies in the United States, and market trends, we will present the trends of NTT's IOWN, the winning strategies of Japanese companies with strengths in materials, implementation, and equipment, as well as future business opportunities and challenges toward social implementation from a business perspective. [Lecture Items] 1. Why photonic-electronic convergence now? 2. What is photonic-electronic convergence? 3. Global market trends 4. Japan and the initiatives of Japanese companies 5. Future outlook 6. Challenges 7. Q&A / Business card exchange

In the ever-evolving aerospace industry, the keywords are "environmental resistance," "high performance," and "lightweight" for equipment. This seminar has been planned as an opportunity to provide various topics, from explanations of difficult-to-machine materials such as titanium and Inconel to the latest trends in the space business. We hope you will watch and find hints for the next stage.
