<P>
Embedded DRAMs are widely seen as an important technology for
<FONT COLOR="Red">many current and future applications</FONT>. As the industry
moves to 1 million gate ASICs and PLDs, the availability of large amounts
of on-chip storage will be required in many instances. This new and up-to-date
seminar covers all aspects of embedded DRAMs today and tomorrow, with a special
emphasis on the role they will play in large-scale
<FONT COLOR="Red">System-Level Integration ICs</FONT>.
