1. Remote MEMS Simulation, Testing and Design A Next Generation Internet Incubator James Demmel CITRIS Chief Scientist

2. Remote MEMS Simulation, Testing and Design • MEMS = MicroElectroMechanicalSystems • Core CITRIS Sensor/Actuator Technology • Goal: Make tools for designing MEMS available to remote users • Simulation, Fabrication, Testing • Academic and Industrial users (thousands) • Leverage large investment in networking and unique facilities at UCB and elsewhere

3. BSAC Microscopic StroboscopicInterferometer (Muller, Rembe, BSAC, UCB)

4. Adaptive Optics MicroMirror(Muller, Rembe, BSAC)

5. SUGAR(Pister, Demmel, Govindjee, Agogino, Gu, Bai) • MEMS Simulation Tool, inspired by SPICE • Available as Web service on Millennium • Currently 100s of users • Ex: Laterally actuated torsionally suspended micromirror

6. Matisse Project (DARPA) • Provide remote access to unique and mostly MEMS facilities for large user community • Provide central facility (MEMS Exchange) to organize national networkof MEMS testing sites • Use SuperNet infrastructure • DARPA supported (UCB, LBL, CMU, MIT, CNRI, ISI, Sarnoff)

7. Current MEMS ExchangeFabrication Sites and Participating Sites 1100 registered users • Fabrication Sites Under Contract: • Academic: • University of California at Berkeley • Stanford University • Cornell University • University of Michigan • Case Western Reserve University • University of Illinois • LSU/Center for Advanced Microstructures and Devices (expected soon) • Commercial: • Analog Devices • Teledyne Electronics • Microwave Bonding Inc. • Integrated Sensing Systems (ISSYS) • Sony Semiconductor • Tactical Fabs, Inc. • Zygo TeraOptics, Inc. • Advanced MEMS Optical, Inc. • ASML • Lance Goddard Assoc. • Intelligent Micropatterning, LLC

8. Notes: Site/network connection operational Site/network connection expected to be operational soon Site/network connection down due to NTON network turn down Peering with other networks SuperNet

9. Matisse Site Connections

10. Needs and Potential Impact • West Coast down because NTON down • Even if NTON were up, if would not reach all potential users • How many users? • Currently 1100 registered MEMS Exchange users • Hundreds of SUGAR users • More signed up (UCD, UCLA, Stanford, BSAC industrial affiliates) • Intend to export as educational facility • Large potential user base, high leverage • Requirements • Move and store 80 GB data files • Raw data from experimental platforms up to 300MBs/ • Real time data from UCB Interferometer = 80 MB/s • Real time control of experiment => ?? Latency • Impact • Greatly expand MEMS community

11. A Next Generation Internet Incubator • CommerceNet-funded NGI • http://www.commerce.net • At Bancroft/Shattuck in shared CCIT space • http://www.path.berkeley.edu/PATH/CCIT/Default.htm • Companies will incubate and collaborate with CITRIS faculty and students • Kalil, Demmel, Sastry, Teece (advisors) • http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~demmel/CommerceNet • Companies chosen for closeness to CITRIS • Mankoff working with Pangea on access for people with disabilities • Resources available, contact Tom Kalil (tkalil@coe.berkeley.edu)
