Abstract
In this chapter, we aim to introduce the global context of the book. While the microelectronics industry is still lead by the scaling, we point out its limits and highlights some novel way coming from the nanotechnologies. In order to provide an efficient evaluation strategy of the different ways, we present the global methodology used in the remaining of the book.

Notes
- 1.
This term was first coined at the 100 k transistor mark. Other terms were later proposed (e.g. ULSI) to reflect the continually increasing complexity of integrated circuits , but remains the term of choice within the community.
- 2.
High Threshold Voltage (Vt).
- 3.
Low Threshold Voltage (Vt).
