W01 Eco-ES: Eco-design and circular economy of Electronic Systems
The impact of electronics on the environment is becoming an important issue, especially because of the number of systems growing exponentially. Eco-design and circular economy applied to Electronic Systems are thus becoming major challenges for our society to respond to the dangers for the environment: exponential increase in electronic waste generation, depletion of resources, contribution to climate change and poor resiliency to supply-chain issues. Electronic Systems designers willing to engage in eco-design face several difficulties, related in particular to a limited knowledge of the environmental impact from the design phase and the uncertain extension of the service lifetime of the system or parts of the system, owing to the variability in user behaviour and business models.
At DATE 2023, the workshop Eco-ES is devoted to Eco-design and circular economy of Electronic Systems. The objective of Eco-ES is to gather experts from both academia and industry, covering a wide scope in the environmental sustainability of Electronic Systems. Besides regular sessions with talks, a debate panel will offer a place for the audience to discuss and share ideas.
Workshop topics include:
- Specification and modelling of sustainable Electronic Systems
- Life Cycle Assessment tools and techniques
- Electronic Design Automation tools for eco-design
- Design Space Exploration including environmental aspects
- Eco-reliability techniques to design sustainable systems with extended lifetime
- Reparability methods
- Reuse strategies
- Recycling of Electronic Systems
- Refurbish for a second life of the products
- Sustainable cloud computing and datacenters
- Inter-disciplinary works linking the technology aspects of eco-design and circular economy to social and economic sciences
